To Catch a Countess — Patricia Grasso

Beautiful though she is, Victoria Douglas's reputation for reckless behavior has put her marriage prospects at risk. Only those closest to her know that the young woman's outrageous behavior is designed to mask a secret shame. Infuriated to discover that her family has betrothed her to a stranger, Victoria nevertheless finds herself deeply attracted to her future groom...

Alexander Emerson is on a quest to find his real father, and to right the wrongs brought about by his stepfather against the Douglas family. A match to wed the youngest daughter, Victoria, and restore the family fortune seems a suitable arrangement. Even more so when he finds himself enchanted by his irrepressible bride-to-be. But their pursuit of a future together is threatened when Alexander's enemies conspire to bring ruin to the couple--as scandal and surprises collide in a game of desire and deceit that can only be won by true love itself.
