EBOOK
About
With her striking hazel-green eyes and red lights glimmering in her hair, seventeen-year-old Darcia Rowley never fitted in at her prim Convent school – so she's thrilled to be back with her father, the loveable rogue and notorious 'ladies' man' Lord Rowley. She's not so thrilled to hear, though, that he plans to send her to France under an assumed identity – the Comtesse de Sauze – so that her success in Society and eventually marriage is not tainted by association with 'Rowley the Roué'.
But headstrong Darcia has other ideas – and like her father she's determined to follow her heart. And where her heart – and Fate – leads her is to the half-built home of the magnificent Earl of Kirkhampton, whom she has adored since childhood. Inflamed by the jealousy, she's driven to weave her own web of deceit and soon the Earl is entranced by her intuitive understanding of his every desire. And if Darcia thought she was in love before, now her passion has reached a whole new level. At last she has found the Perfection of Love – but how can it be perfect if it's based on a lie?
