Mistress by Mistake — Susan Gee Heino

A fabulous new voice in Regency romance, award-winning author Susan Gee Heino tells of a beautiful heiress and the lord who will be her undoing -- or her salvation...

Dutiful and dashing Lord Dashford decides to ward off the marriage-minded ladies of the ton by convincing the world he's throwing away his fortune on gambling and courtesans. But what to do when his mother throws a swooning heiress at him?

Heiress Evaline Pinchley has made a few mistakes in her life. One was letting her aunt drag her to the Dashford estate, where long-hidden secrets could ruin her. Another was believing she could sneak out to the garden--alone--to toast her birthday. But her biggest mistake of all? Not recognizing her host when he begins to seduce her.

One full moon and an empty Madeira bottle later, Evaline wakes to find herself in Dashford's bed. Now rumors and passions are sure to run wild -- unless Dashford and Evaline realize that what happened in the moonlight was no mistake...
