A Most Unsuitable Countess

Summary

A match most unsuitable. A love that's undeniable.

Catherine, the widowed Lady Rosemont, is considered a most unsuitable countess by polite society. Whispers about her checkered history follow her wherever she goes. Despite the rumors, Catherine navigates high society's treacherous waters with her head held high. For the sake of her son, Louis, she must never sink. But when she receives threatening letters and Louis's life is endangered, she turns to a past paramour for help . . . the man who left her heartbroken.

Adam St Clair, Lord Dalton, has always been one to adhere to family duty no matter the cost. Five years ago, he set aside his all-consuming desire for his mistress, Catherine Delacourt, and took a conventional ton bride. Now, newly widowed, fate decrees he should cross paths with Catherine once again. When she shares a secret and implores him for protection, Adam is torn. With danger lurking around every corner, keeping Catherine and her son safe is the right thing to do. Nevertheless, Adam must decide whether he'll risk his reputation—and his family's—for the only woman he's never been able to forget . . . The one woman who might just steal his heart.
