SummaryUSA Today bestselling author Julia London, "a gifted and
versatile author" (Publishers Weekly), introduces a sexy,
wildly romantic and emotionally charged new trilogy in which
three aristocratic young ladies, upon discovering they are
destitute, resort to desperate means to keep up
appearances...and find the husbands of their dreams.
When the young ladies of the Fairchild family learn that
their stepfather has absconded with their late mother's
fortune, Ava, the eldest, hunts down the notoriously wealthy
rakehell Jared Broderick, the Marquis of Middleton and heir
to a dukedom. Much to her shock and delight, the marquis
sweeps her into a whirlwind romance and proposes marriage.
But after their passionate wedding night, Ava discovers
Jared has ulterior motives of his own. Not only does he
expect her to deliver an heir while he continues to enjoy a
rogue's life, but Ava also suspects she is a pawn in her
husband's quest for revenge. Marriages of convenience work
for some, but for Ava a loveless bond won't do. So she
devises a bold plan to confront her husband's demons so that
he might be free to choose to give her his heart for the
right reason: because she is the only woman he will ever
truly desire.
