Lord Caliban — Ellen Fitzgerald

THE DREADFUL DEBT

Lord Rodger Colbourue had saved Clemency's life one terrifying day when she was trapped in a collapsing tower; and he came to her rescue.

Now he had come to claim that life he had saved, as he proposed marriage without a promise of love, and demanded she trust him even though he filled her with fear

There was no one to save her now -- not Damian, who had stolen her heart and then vanished...not her beautiful cousin Beatrix, who had vanished, too, in a disquieting cloud of mystery...not her parents, who wanted only that Clemency be wed at last.

Clemency knew that debts had to be paid -- but she trembled to discover how high the price would be...

Hero: Lord Rodger Colbourue
Heroine: Clemency Barsford
