An offer from the Marquess - Paperback

It was the worst day of her life... Her wedding day
Miss Isabel Lewis is down on her luck. Previously a perfect hostess and a proper lady, lately she's been running into one trouble after another. Literally. One such unfortunate event costs her the respectability she worked so hard to earn. Now she has a choice, either marry a man she loathes or spend her life a ruined lady.

A single father, a misbehaving child and an unruly dog
The Marquess of Vane is a hermit, and a recluse. Having been burnt by women not once, but twice, he is determined to find a perfect, proper lady for the sake of his daughter and marquessate. No need for passion, love or even companionship. But when he runs into Miss Isabel and is forced to offer for her hand, sparks fly and promise to upturn his quiet, uneventful life.

Will they allow their passion to burn, or will their past steal their right to happiness?
