The Rake's Quarry
THE CHASE IS ON FOR A LADY'S HAND...
For Elaine Bayworth, the lovely young Countess of Wicksteed, her first London season promised to be an unrivalled success. Yet with suitors gathered round and one intriguing Frenchman having caught her eye, it was the very handsome, very outre adventurer Burton Home who captured her attention. Before the first dance was done, she was tingling all over, before the evening was over, she was in his arms. Little did she know that he had something even more scandalous planned...

...AND A ROGUE'S HEART
Burton had come to the ball with vengeance and ruin in mind. Spying his beautiful quarry at the center of a gaggle of simpering young men, he decided that desperate times called for desperate measures. But when Elaine became engaged to a foppish foreigner, forcing Burton to abduct her-- right at the altar--the hunter suddenly became the hunted. For Cupid had taken aim...and the arrow was flying straight for Burton's heart!
