An Improper Widow

LADY WITH A PASTSusannah Bowen was disgraced during a disastrous first Season--and has posed as a widow ever since to prevent further entanglements. Now she has been offered a home and independence -- if the shamed miss can steer her troublesome cousin Juliet toward an acceptable match. But things go shockingly awry when a highwayman steals Juliet's heart en route to London--and brazenly presents Susannah's charge with a calling card purloined from the Marquess of Warne.MARQUESS WITH A MISSIONA man hiding his own painful secrets, Warne is incensed over the theft of his personal property--and determined to unmask the blackguard responsible. But that will inevitably place the sad, private peer in close contact with an equally guarded Susannah. And when lovelorn souls travel together, there's no telling what amorous turns the road might take.
