Description
Dancing into the arms of love?
Marcus, Lord Hawthorne, vowed never to fall in love, the past having taught him that marriage can only ever lead to heartbreak. So, how has he allowed himself to be tricked into being leg-shackled to Faith Whitworth, the daughter of a scheming businessman who wants entry to the ton?
Marcus's solution for dealing with his unwanted wife is to keep her at Deer Park, his country estate, while he stays in London. But when he returns at Christmastime, he is surprised to find that not only does Faith revel in her role as his marchioness, she is sweet and lovely—and he desires her. This was never part of his plan. However, the arrival of relatives means he won't be able to escape until the yuletide festivities are over.
As Twelfth Night approaches, Faith's gentleness and beauty are growing on Marcus more and more. He realizes he wants to dance with her forever, in a marriage that's more than in name only. He knows he can protect her from her ruthless papa and make her happy—just as long as he doesn't have to give her his heart…
