false 110389 6 Eleanor Lyndon was minding her own business when a lord of the realm fell---quite literally---into her life. When Charles Wycombe, the dashing and incorrigible Earl of Billington, toppled out of a tree and landed at Ellie's feet, neither suspected that such an inauspicious meeting would lead to marriage. But Charles must find a bride before his thirtieth birthday or he'll lose his fortune. And Ellie needs a husband or her father's odious fiancee will choose one for her. And so they agree to wed, even though their match appears to have been made somewhere hotter than heaven... Ellie never dreamed she'd marry a stranger, especially one with such a devastating combination of rakish charm and debonair wit. She tries to keep him at arm's length, at least until she discovers the man beneath the handsome surface. But Charles can be quite persuasive---even tender---when he puts his mind to it, and Ellie finds herself slipping under his seductive spell. And as one kiss leads to another, this unlikely pair discovers that their marriage is not so inconvenient after all...and just might lead to love.

I've been a member of this fine site for quite a while now and I've noticed a "1 Star" is (for some reason) very rarely handed out. I for one have no problem handing down a 1 if I didn't like the book. That's what these ratings scales are for, and that...more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 1999 Thu Aug 21 15:00:58 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 15:09:35 -0700 2008 Quinn, Julia - 1st in Lyndon Sisters series
