The Inheritance — Joan Johnston

Daisy knew that someday, somehow, she would pay for wanting what no proper woman wanted...

The ravishing Duchess Daisy vowed to save Severn Manor by marrying Nicholas Calloway, a Texas bounty hunter come to claim his family's ancestral lands. But the moment they met the slate-eyed barbarian took Daisy's breath away. She proposed a marriage of convenience. But she hadn't reckoned on flash-fire passion with the savage new duke...

Nicholas Calloway came to England to discover the truth about his bastard birth, then sell his inherited estate-with Duchess Daisy's help. Her price was marriage. He agreed, determined to have her on his own terms-only to find himself hostage to the firey redhead he couldn't leave behind...

Hero: Nicholas Calloway
Heroine: Margaret (Daisy) Windermere, Duchess of Severn
