Regency Gossip: The Wedding Gamble / a Scandalous Proposal

Description

The Wedding Gamble Sarah Wellingford would do her duty. Even if that meant putting herself on the Marriage Mart during a London season she could ill afford -- and did not desire.

A Scandalous Proposal Threatened by extortionists, disowned widow Emily Spenser has little recourse -- until the Earl of Cheverley, captivated by this unusual shopkeeper, comes to her aide.

Little does she realise a "fleeting" affair will lead to something much more...
