The arrival of Elliot Wallace, Viscount Lyngate, in the small village
of Throckbridge causes quite a stir, and
his proposal to marry Vanessa Huxtable's sister takes everyone by surprise.

Determined to see that her sister is not thrust into a marriage of convenience with a stranger, widowed Vanessa volunteers to become the
viscount's bride. Since Elliot needs a wife, he cannot be too particular, yet
he never expects Vanessa to be fiery
or sensual. She was married to a dying man and has no idea what it's like to be held by strong arms and receive heart-melting kisses. Brought together by fate, they discover a love neither expects and shadows of the past
they must erase before they can seize happiness. (DELL, Mar., 400 pp., $6.99)
