Once upon a time there were three young ladies who, despite their
fortunes, had been on the marriage mart a bit too long. They were known
as "the Spinster Heiresses" . . .
Is it wrong for a woman to want more?
Not if she is a Spinster Heiress. They do not settle. Any young miss
would be very lucky to find herself promised to a man like the Duke of
Camberly. However, Miss Willa Reverly has watched her friends marry for
love. Camberly may be the prize of the season, but she will not be
"sold" to any man. She wants his devotion or she wants nothing at all.
When is a Marriage of Convenience inconvenient?
Newly named to the ducal title, Matthew Addison is determined to
discover the secrets behind Mayfield, the bankrupt estate he has
inherited. He doesn't have time to coddle a headstrong heiress who is
determined to ditch him over something as silly as "love." Little does
he know that his questions will place her in jeopardy. Now he must do
what he must to save them both.
Could it be that in running from danger they might be racing headlong
into a truly unexpected fate: falling in love?
