Lady Diana's Darlings — Kate Huntington

A LOVELY YOUNG WIDOW
Diana Milton, widow of the Earl of Windom, dislikes her husband's fusty relations, particularly handsome, arrogant Lord Arnside. When Arnside's fiancee, Penelope, runs away from school, Diana becomes the girl's protector -- much to the horror of the gentleman. But when Arnside shows a special affinity for Diana's beloved little boy, she unexpectedly loses her heart to him.

AN HONORABLE LORD
Lord Arnside cannot understand how his relative made such a shocking misalliance, marrying the daughter of an actress and for as flimsy a reason as love! His own affianced bride, whom he certainly does not love, is a demure young heiress of impeccable pedigree. How then had his life gone so harum-scarum? For, unaccountably, he finds himself smitten with the spirited widow. Honor forbids him to declare his sentiments for Diana -- or to break his engagement with Penelope...unless fate comes to the rescue of two destined hearts.
