The prodigal peer⌠or the return of the rogue?
Lucien, Marquess of Lynnfield, disappeared from the family seat nearly a decade ago, and now heâs back, ready to take his inheritance in hand. Questions swirlâWhere was he? Why return now? What sort of man has he become?âand Lucien canât offer much in the way of explanations. All he knows is, the dearest companion of his youth, Lady Penelope Richard, is being courted by a handsome cad, and Lucien cannot allow her ladyship to waste her future on a scoundrel.
Penelope hasnât seen Lucien for years, but sheâs been too angry with him for abandoning her to forget him. He broke her heart when he left the first time, and she is quite, entirely, completely over himâalmostâuntil old passion stir backs to life, hotter and more dangerous than ever. If Lucien and Penelope are to share their hearts as well as searing kisses, they will have to overcome their own worst fears and outwit an enemy who will do anything to keep them apart.
