Dance of Desire — Sarah Fairchilde

A LADY AROUSED
Virginia's first impression of Lord Sherbourne was somewhat less than favorable. First he almost ran her down as he came thundering through the forest on horseback. Then he silenced her indignation with a most ungentlemanly kiss. Obviously her black-haired neighbor had mistaken her for a kitchen maid, and had no idea she was the new mistress of Robinswood Manor. And it was no wonder--considering her shocking response to his embrace before she could summon the presence of mind to break away!

AN HEIRESS PURSUED
Just when she had managed to put the mortifying incident out of her mind, she overheard Sherbourne talking to his sister---plotting to marry Virginia for her newly inherited fortune! Seething with outrage, the lovely heiress decided the insufferable lord was in need of a royal setdown. And she knew just the way to go about it ...

Hero: Lord Rupert Sherbourne
Heroine: Lady Virginia Cross
