It has never been Drusilla’s goal to marry well. In fact, she was planning not to marry at all. That all changed in the blink of an eye when Gabriel Marlington barreled into her life.
Part of Dru is elated that she is being forced to marry Gabe—he’s the man she’s been in love with for three long years.
But the only thing more painful than loving a man who already loves somebody else is being married to him.
Eva would be happy to never see the inside of another ball room as long as she lives. One London Season is more than enough for this horse-obsessed hoyden.
She doesn’t care a whit about her reputation—indeed, her life would be better if her reputation were shredded to ribbons.
Her life would also be better if Lord Godric Visel would quit tormenting her beloved stepbrother, Gabriel Marlington. Gabe is the big brother Eva always wanted to have. She’s tired of seeing him suffer slights and cuts and is terrified that Visel will continue to harass her brother until the two men finally duel.
The only way to ensure that doesn’t happen is to remove one of them from London. Gabe has just married her best friend Dru and they have enough problems to contend with.
The one to go will have to be the Earl of Visel.
