A Scandalous Creature

Kate is a rich widow with a bad marriage behind her. She has no desire to marry again, but must find a convenient husband to regain control of her estates. She is also the guardian of a young spitfire niece. The niece recommends she marry an old childhood friend, Johnny Rotherham, but when she does she finds him by far too attractive for her peace of mind. And her niece is gathering some persistent unsavory suitors - or is it Johnny himself she is toying with? A Regency farce where everyone gets a chance to learn a little, look a little foolish, and grab for a second chance at happiness. This author's previous Regency, The Unwilling Heiress, was chosen as a Best Book of the Year by the American Booksellers Association.
