Heiress Lucy Percy’s family fends off a fortune-hunter, and Lucy decides to rusticate. She and her aunt rent a cottage, but change their identities in order to avoid further problems. The Earl of Avedon’s ramshackle nephew owns their cottage and exhibits every sign of falling for Lucy’s charms. But Avedon suspects Lucy is out to capture his nephew and does everything in his power to prevent that! Regency Romance by Joan Smith; originally published by Fawcett Crest
