Miss Charity's Case — Jo Ann Ferguson

SHE HAD FAITH AND HOPE...
At six-and-twenty, Miss Charity Stuart, daughter of Bridgeton's late minister, was on the shelf. But she believed that her pretty younger sister could still snare an aristocratic suitor--especially when the invitation arrived from their blue-blooded great-aunt. En route to London for the Season, the sisters stopped the night at an inn...where Charity was shocked to find herself the object of an impertinent stranger's bold blue-eyed gaze!

...AND NOW MISS CHARITY HAD A SCANDALOUS BEAU!
What could the devilishly handsome Lord Blackburn want with a flame-haired, sharp-tongued, over-the-hill spinster? Soon the whole ton was buzzing...and Charity's heart fluttered each time the notorious nobleman came near. Yet in a town filled with intrigue and dangerous secrets, would romance with a rogue sweep Charity toward ruin--or a once-in-a-lifetime love?
