When her parents and only brother
die within weeks of each other, Alicia and her younger sister are left in the
hands of an uncle who has brought them all to financial and social ruin.
Desperate to save her family from debtor’s prison, Alicia vows to marry the
first wealthy man to propose. She meets the dashing Lord Amesbury, and her
heart whispers that this is the man she is destined to love, but his tainted
past may forever stand in their way. Her choices in potential husbands narrow
to either a scarred cripple with the heart of a poet, or a handsome rake with a
deadly secret.
Cole Amesbury is tormented by his own ghosts, and believes he is beyond redemption, yet he cannot deny his attraction for the girl whose genuine goodness touches the heart he’d thought long dead. He fears the scars in his soul cut so deeply that he may never be able to offer Alicia a love that is true. When yet another bizarre mishap threatens her life, Alicia suspects the seemingly unrelated accidents that have plagued her loved ones are actually a killer’s attempt to exterminate every member of her family. Despite the threat looming over her, learning to love the stranger she married may pose the greatest danger of all, a danger to her heart.
