Lord Garson`s Bride, Campbell Anna

Lord Garsons dilemma.

Hugh Rutherford, Lord Garson, loved and lost when his fianc e returned to the husband shed believed drowned. In the three years since, Garson has come to loathe his notoriety as Londons most famous rejected suitor. Its high time to find a bride, a level-headed, well-bred lady who will accept a loveless marriage and cause no trouble. Luckily he has just the candidate in mind.

A marriage of convenience...

When Lady Jane Norris receives an unexpected proposal from her childhood friend Lord Garson, marriage to the handsome baron rescues her from a grim future. At twenty-eight, Jane is on the shelf and under no illusions about her attractions. With her fathers death, shes lost her home and faces life as an impecunious spinster. While shes aware Garson will never love again, they have friendship and goodwill to build upon. What can possibly go wrong?

...becomes very inconvenient indeed

From the first, things dont go to plan, not least because Garson soon finds himself in thrall to his surprisingly intriguing bride. A union grounded in duty veers toward obsession. And when the Dashing Widows take Jane in hand and transform her into the toast of London, Garson isnt the only man to notice his wifes beauty and charm. Hes known Jane all her life, but suddenly shes a dazzling stranger. This isnt the uncomplicated, pragmatic match he signed up for. When Jane defies the final taboo and asks for his love, her impossible demand threatens to blast this convenient marriage to oblivion.

Once the dust settles, will Lord Garson still be the man who can only love once?
