Taming Eliza
Northern Exposure

Lady Eliza Chalmers was the most divinely dazzling, wickedly witty beauty in London. She was also as spoiled and arrogant a young woman as ever dashed suitors' hopes and drove a father to take desperate action.

Thus it was that Eliza found herself in a coach going to the remote north of England, where she was to consider the Earl of Darrin as her husband. She expected the worst--hut was not prepared for how dismal the worst could be. The Earl's home was no castle but a bleak house that made a prison seem pretty. That the Earl himself might be a lord was cold comfort, for he certainly was no gentleman. First he stripped her of her pride. Then he stripped her of her privilege. And with her defenses shattered and her heart playing strange tricks, Eliza had to wonder if he meant to strip her of her virtue as well....

Hero: Drake Darrin
