About this ebook
Heaven comes to a marriage made in hell in this Regency romance from the New York Times–bestselling author of the Hamish Macbeth mysteries.
Poor Lucy was living a dream—a bad one. One could even say a nightmare. She had married a gambler, a womanizer, and a drunkard. And she refused to admit that his frequent overnight absences were of any significance. The sting came when it was revealed that Lucy’s parents had “bought” her husband for her.
And then one night at a ball, Lucy met the charismatic Duke of Habard and suddenly anything seemed possible . . .
