A Fallen Woman

SHE WAS SHROUDED IN SCANDAL
Since her husband's tragic death in the Peninsula, Carlotta Ennis had hoped to attract a wealthy husband in Bath. Instead she made the ruinous mistake of loving a rake who was willing to seduce her, but not to marry her. Now that she has been so thoroughly compromised, she is certain no decent gentleman will ever marry her...until James Rutledge returns home from the war and offers his hand--though Carlotta is convinced it is out of duty, and not love.

HE RESCUED HER HONOR
After Carlotta's husband gave his own his life to save him in the heat of battle, James had vowed to return the man's gift by providing for his wife and son. Though the lovely widow agrees to become his bride, James believes it is his fortune alone that she desires. Yet as near tragedy sends Carlotta into his arms, it also propels her to confess her deepest secrets. Will James let her dark past come between them, or listen to his heart's undeniable truth...that he's fallen in love with a fallen woman?
