When a self–made American man and a most proper English lady meet in Regency London, it's a total clash – and attraction – of opposites.
Debra Mullins brings Miss Margaret Stanton-Lynch from Boston into the polite drawing rooms of Devon. The novel surrounds this independent American with watchful chaperones – yet strands her beside the brooding Earl of Rathmore.
Knightsbridge Chase gathers old school chums and suspicious dowagers for a house party rife with secrets. Devon society weighs a tainted nobleman against a duke's granddaughter: every whispered accusation tests their unwilling bargain.
- Opposites Attract: Meg Lynch trades sharp banter with the formidable Earl of Rathmore at a Devon assembly, refusing to swoon like proper English maidens even after he sweeps her into an illicit waltz.
- Locked Room Mystery: Six years after Ophelia Haversham's fatal fall down the stairs, Justin interrogates former house party guests to expose a killer before society brands him an unrepentant murderer.
- Found Family: Between coaxing a stubborn twelve-year-old through her fears and splashing vivid oil paint across fresh canvases, an independent American discovers where she truly belongs.
- Also by This Author: The Night Before The Wedding, To Ruin the Duke and Too Wicked to Love.
