The Noblest Frailty

a delightful tale of one young lovely and the pair of roguish cousins competing for her heart

"I do love Devenish, Mama. He's the very dearest boy."

Lovely Yolande Drummond has been promised to Alain Devenish since both were children. Her parents adore Dev and are counting on the match to unite their land with the neighboring Aspenhill.

Any other young lady would be thrilled by the prospect of marrying the rakishly handsome Dev. And Yolande is fond of him. She just wishes he were less of a prankster. And more of a lover.

Then she chances to meet Craig Winters, a rugged Canadian whose very glance quickens her heart. Of course, this complicates matters with Devenish -- especially when Yolande discovers that Winters is Dev's cousin...and enemy.

******* Even though this book was published after Married Past Redemption, the author recommends reading The Noblest Frailty prior to Married Past Redemption. The two stories overlap, but in MPR the main characters are married and they are just engaged in TNF.
