The Reluctant Lord
American Fane Westby didn't know he was actually the son of an English lord, a dying man who calls his long lost child home to England.
When Fane arrives at the estate, a peculiar young lady guards the gates. He soon learns that though Miss Marietta Hampton isn't related, she lives on his father's land-and there are swirling rumors all about her. Is she the lady her behavior says she is, or is she the hoyden the rumors claim?
Two strangers. One from abroad, who wonders who he truly is. One with secrets, who wonders what is to become of her. Both frozen on the cusp of serious change. Both deeply attracted to what they shouldn't want--each other.
