Lord Brandsley's Bride — Claire Lorel

Rumor had it that Lady Waring was an accomplished flirt - and a mercenary adventuress...

The Marquess of Brandsley had come out of the seclusion of his country estate to save his young cousin from the clutches of this beautiful widow. Only to find himself falling under her spell.

Lovely Damaris, Lady Waring, enjoyed her reputation - and her popularity. But she knew that all of the charms of the high ton and the excitement of her first season in London could not compare to the joy of a few moments in Lord Brandsley's arms.

Damaris yearned desperately for such happiness. If only she could overcome Brandsley's suspicions - and erase the unhappy memories of her first, tragic marriage.
