The Dangerous Marquis — Barbara Reeves

AN ALOOF LADY

Boston-bred Audrey Soames-Taylor promised her late father she would have a season in England, But she has already had more than her fill of the idle, pompous gentlemen of the London ton. So she is shocked to find herself inexplicably attracted to Gideon St, Aubin, the arrogant and dangerously handsome Marquis of Huxford.

A LORD UNDONE

Mistrusting and disinterested. Gideon has forsworn the institution of matrimony. But when discovered in what is wrongly construed as a compromising position with the enchanting American miss, the ever-proper lord is impelled to announce their engagement. And though Audrey herself agrees their sham betrothal should be publicly dissolved as soon as possible, neither anticipates that infuriatingly irrational condition called love.
