His Unexpected Bride — Jo Ann Ferguson

It Was An Unusual Beginning...

The last thing Tess Masterson expected when she woke was to find a stranger--in her bed! The man said he was Cameron Hawksmoor, a marquess, which was surprising enough. Then Tess's father told her that handsome Cameron was her husband, thanks to a proxy ceremony. Nothing could be further from Tess's wishes, despite Cameron's brooding good looks. Yet, it somehow stung that her new husband obviously wanted nothing to do with her...

...To An Extraordinary Love

To Cam's dismay, an annulment was out of the question, despite the fact he was too foxed to remember the ceremony. It appeared he and Tess had spent the night together, after all. And Tess--as stubborn as she was lovely--soon proved determined to carry out the charade of a marriage. Then Cam discovered the cleverly vicious plot that had brought them together, and he found protecting her was his first concern. For against all the odds, he had fallen in love with his unexpected bride.
