You couldn't design a better hero than the very eligible and extremely
charming Earl Grantham. Unless, of course, you are Margaret Gault, who
wants nothing to do with the man who broke her youthful heart.
Widowed and determined, Margaret Gault has returned to Athena's Retreat
and the welcoming arms of her fellow secret scientists with an ambitious
plan in mind: to establish England's first woman-owned engineering firm.
But from the moment she sets foot in London her plans are threatened by
greedy investors and--at literally every turn--the irritatingly
attractive Earl Grantham, a man she can never forgive.
George Willis, the Earl Grantham, is thrilled that the woman he has
loved since childhood has returned to London. Not as thrilling, however,
is her decision to undertake an engineering commission from his
political archnemesis. When Margaret's future and Grantham's
parliamentary reforms come into conflict, Grantham must use every ounce
of charm he possesses--along with his stunning good looks and flawless
physique, of course--to win Margaret over to his cause.
Facing obstacles seemingly too large to dismantle, will Grantham and
Margaret remain forever disconnected or can they find a way to bridge
their differences, rekindle the passion of their youth, and construct a
love built to last?
