Deirdre and Don Juan
The Rogue Proposes
"Don Juan," the dashing Earl of Everdon, was abandoned by his wife shortly following the wedding--and his scandalous behavior is considered an understandable response. Now newly widowed, the errant earl is most eager to marry someone--anyone--who will bear him an heir. And quiet, well-bred Lady Deirdre Stowe fits the bill quite nicely.

The Lady Demurs
Enamored of another, Deirdre wants nothing to do with the lascivious lord--but she is bound by a promise to say "yes" to any suitable proposal. So the earl devises a sham betrothal to satisfy all concerned. But their amorous dance of deception is about to take some rather unexpected spins.

Hero: Mark Juan Carlos Renfrew (Don Juan), Earl of Everdon
