A Worthy Opponent
Love or Money? Desperate to provide financial security for her family, spinster Judith Shelton is about to commit that most heinous of crimes—trapping a wealthy, titled man into marriage. She sets out to gain the notice of the viscount unlucky enough to hold a week long house party near her country village. A small carriage accident should do the trick. The viscount has no choice but to notice the lady sprawled at his feet.
So does his best friend Mr. Peregrine Campion who suspects a fortune hunter. To save his friend, he sticks close to Judith and meddles with her schemes to entice the viscount.
Although Judith complains about Peregrine’s interference, secretly she’s beginning to love him. Could she dare to choose love over money? Or is his interest only a counter move by a worthy opponent?
