An alternate title/cover for this ASIN can be found here. Miss Heather Everly desperately needs to get married, but not just any suitor will do. Her family is on the brink of ruin, and only the Duke of Ablehill can save her. When he agrees to meet her, it's the duke's steward who arrives in his place. Heather must convince him that she would be the perfect duchess, but her attraction to him is clouding her mind. Her heart is pulling her away from what she must do, and toward the man she truly wants. Fallon Calder cannot believe that the beautiful and vibrant Miss Everly wishes to marry a malicious old man like the Duke of Ablehill. He is determined to find out all he can about her, but what he doesn't anticipate is his own heart getting involved. The more he learns about her, the more certain he becomes that the only man Heather should belong to, is him.
