Description:
What the ton doesn't know...
Although in the eyes of the ton Cecelia Thompson is a wealthy widow, in reality she penniless. Randall Cheltenham, Marquess of Falconbridge seems to offer a safe haven, but he has turned into a dissolute rake! How can she trust a man who has hurt her before and who seems to have only become darker with the passing of time?
Trapped in the shadow of her mother's notoriety, Miss Marianne Domville is excluded from London society. Her sole comfort is composing at her pianoforte-until author Sir Warren Stevens brings a forbidden thrill of excitement into her solitary existence...and a shocking proposal!
