County Clare, Ireland, 1816. Evleen O’Fallon is shocked to see the fine figure of Lord Thomas Linberry at her door. Just arrived from England, he bears the news that Evleen’s young half brother Patrick--her only sibling born of the dissolute Englishman who stole her mother’s heart and spent her fortune--is the heir to a vast estate. But Patrick can only become the next Viscount Montfret if someone accompanies him to England…Suddenly, Evleen is surrounded by the lights of the city, an Irish outcast in London’s ton. No one will marry a twenty-four year old Irishwoman, no matter her beauty--but Lord Thomas’s heart rejects convention and he cannot deny his attraction to this lovely Irish upstart. Their souls fired by a passion that knows no country, they will find in each other’s arms a love that breaks every boundary… Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
