Romantic Treasure for You

In a Regency romance by a New York Times bestselling author, the prodigal son of a nobleman returns home and is forced into a marriage of convenience. Pretty Samantha Northrup, the chaste English vicar's daughter, secretly desires to be swept off her feet by a man whose kisses leave her breathless. When a seductive stranger arrives at her door one stormy night, Samantha's neat and orderly life is turned upside down, especially when she finds herself in a compromising position and is forced to marry a man she barely knows.

Unaware that her mystery bridegroom is Yale Carderock, the dashing, disinherited rakehell son of a duke who was banished by his father years before, Samantha is intrigued by her new husband's awakening sensuality and innocent fire. Now wealthier but only somewhat reformed, Yale has returned, and he is bewitched by his lovely new bride. Can this marriage of convenience be something more, and can a confirmed cad and society outcast truly change his ways enough to merit the lady's tender love?

Lively dialogue, concise writing, and an unusual slant on the traditional forced-marriage plot make this story of a tormented hero and a determined heroine one that Maxwell's fans will cheer, according to Library Journal.
