The Penniless Bride — Nicola Cornick

Lord Robert Selborne intended to kiss the chimney sweep's daughter for luck at his cousin's wedding...not marry her! But of all the ladies assembled, she was the only one who captured his interest. And unless she became his wife in name only, he would forfeit his inheritance....

Having been raised by a brutal father on the London streets, Jemima Jewell had few illusions about life and love. Until Rob's lips met hers in a soul-stirring kiss and he impulsively made her his wife.

And his penniless bride now hoped her love would provide Rob with a fortune far greater than the one he sought....

Hero: Lord Robert Selborne
