Caroline and Julia — Clare Darcy

HURDLES FOR THE HEART

Julia Daventry was an entrancing enchantress--but could she erase the arrogance of superbly attractive, supremely condescending Neville Devereaux?

Caroline Devereaux was an exquisitely adorable young lady--but could she induce the handsome Lord Redvers to cast aside his cloak of decadent Byronic affectations?

A stolen will... a snare of lies... a savage act of violence... and the very contrary ways of men--all made the irresistible darlings turn to each other for all the help they could get....
