SummaryTristan Wemyss, Earl of Trentham, never expected he'd need
to wed within a year or forfeit his inheritance. But he is
not one to bow to the matchmaking mamas of the ton. No, he
will marry a lady of his own choosing. And the lady he
chooses is the enchanting neighbor living with her family
next door. Miss Leonora Carling has beauty, spirit and
passion; unfortunately, matrimony is the last thing on her
mind ... To Leonora, Tristan's kisses are oh-so-tempting, but once
bitten, forever shy, she has determinedly turned her back
on marriage. But Tristan is a seasoned campaigner who will
not accept defeat. And when a mysterious man attempts to
scare Leonora and her family from their home, Tristan
realizes he's been given the perfect excuse to offer his
services -- as protector, seducer and, ultimately, husband.
