The cold-hearted Marquess of Winchester has married. The catch? His bride, the new Marchioness, is as yet unaware.
He is the one man to whom she would never have willingly pledged her vows. Eight years ago, he humiliated her in the most public manner. Since that fateful day, she has loathed him with every fibre of her being.
Unfortunately, the scoundrel is in the right. Amidst the turmoil of the French Wars, he gave her dying father his solemn word that he would care for his daughter, and – all too legally – took her as his wife with witnesses aplenty – but the bride utterly absent.
She is now the new Marchioness of Winchester, and should it be left to him, she will be expected to produce an heir (in his words: or perhaps even two)…
Delightfully irreverent – wickedly humorous – undeniably tempting. A most unexpected union, with but one sole purpose: to secure an heir. At least, that's the plan. A standalone novel with a guaranteed happily-ever-after, of course, by USA Today bestselling author Jenny Foster, writing as Emmi West.
