Lucy's Scoundrel — Barbara Neil

She had thought to teach him a lesson, not learn one herself

HER soft heart was her undoing

Upon hearing of a libertine son whose errant ways were driving his poor mother to distraction, Lucy Bledsoe reluctantly volunteered to assist in a most devious deception.

As Lord Roderick, Earl of Silverthorne, had so far managed to escape parson's mousetrap by conveniently fabricating a fiancee, Lucy was to present herself as his dearly beloved bethrothed.

From the moment she encountered the look of genuine amusement and welcome challenge in Lord Roderick's mischievous dark eyes, Lucy knew she had made a grave mistake. She had narrowly escaped one scoundrel only to find the next one even more irresistible!

Hero: Lord Roderick, Earl of Silverthorne
Heroine: Lucy Bledsoe
