The Rake and the Spinster — Lynn Kerstan

“Lynn Kerstan's talents continue to reach new heights as she explores all aspects of the human heart: the good, the evil, and the passionate.” Romantic Times

Lady Magdalen Drewe has devoted her life to her orphaned sisters, fiercely determined to protect them from the attentions of predatory males like the too-charming Earl of Keverne. But it's the spinster who has caught his eye, and when he carries her off to his estate by the sea, she knows he is every bit the scoundrel she had thought. But he also understands her as no one has ever done and shows her how to create a flourishing life of her own. Well, after she puts a bullet in him. . . .
