Description
The handsome Earl of Droxford relished all the privileges of wealth and bachelorhood. But now, by royal decree, he must marry within a month. “Find me a wife,” he tells his beautiful mistress. “A complacent, compliant wife who will not interfere in my affairs.”
Unbeknown to the Earl, the bewitching, green-eyed Karina has overheard every word. Desperate to escape her drunken father’s brutality and the misery of poverty, she seizes her chance and boldly offers herself as the docile bride he desires.
Their marriage vows are exchanged without love, and Droxford expects his new wife to obey his every wish. But Karina has a spirit of her own. Her independent nature soon draws her into the glittering but perilous world of fashionable London, where scandal threatens her reputation and her future.
With an indifferent husband offering little protection, Karina must rely on her own courage. But can she protect her future and risk everything, to win the heart of the man she never meant to love?
