Fate
will have her way…

Eliza Terribury is determined to be the
first of her sisters to evade her mother’s attempts to shoo her down the aisle.
Her novel-writing dreams will wither under the demands placed on a gentleman’s
wife.

Saddled with his title at a young age,
Michael Gerard, the elusive Marquess of Rutherford, has always done his duty,
but he will not be pressured into choosing a wife. He just never expected the
rush of attraction every time the impertinent young Eliza crosses his path.

When a completely innocent incident leaves
Rutherford’s hands in a compromising position on Eliza’s bare skin, they have
no choice but to announce an engagement. Privately, they agree to seek a way
out of the unwanted nuptials.

Yet Eliza’s free spirit and understated
sensuality stirs Michael’s desire. And Eliza discovers there is more to the
arrogant lord than meets the eye, especially when she wonders if it is purely
her writer’s imagination that puts his face behind a mysterious highwayman’s
mask.

Product Warnings

Contains one haughty lord
with the body of a medieval warrior, a seventh daughter with attitude to spare,
and one tricky spider with eight legs guided by Fate.
