Wild Summer Rose

THE FRENCH MARQUIS When his grandfather died, Phillipe St. Sebastien inherited his beloved ancestral home, but no money. Without any other hope to save his family legacy, Phillipe traveled to England in search of a wealthy wife --- only to have his mercenary plans go awry when he met . . . THE COUNTRY LASS Sent from her carefree rustic life to become a proper lady, Victoria Larkin bristled against the hypocrisy of the nobility. Longing for her home, she never expected to discover passion in the arms of a man who could offer her nothing more than . . . AN ILLICIT AFFAIR Caught between desire and duty, Phillippe burned to possess Victoria --- as a mistress, not a wife. But in a world suddenly torn asunder by the violent French Revolution, Phillipe and Victoria learned that love alone could keep them safe from the vagaries of fortune.
