The Lord's Reluctant Lady

He’s her best-friend’s brother and the man she has long adored. Can she hide her true feelings to act the part of his betrothed?

Tristan de Neville has it all: dashing good looks; bucket-loads of charm; a loving family and wealth to rival the King himself. Now 26 years of age, it’s high time he took a wife. But Tristan has no intention of accepting just anyone. He wants to marry for love.

As the orphaned ward of the Earl of Wolvesley, Mirrie grew up alongside the beautiful de Neville siblings – all the while pretending that the first son and heir did not make her heart pound. When the sting of unrequited love grew too painful, she left the gaiety of Wolvesley Castle to live a simpler life at Ember Hall. But now Tristan has followed her – with a proposal that leaves her reeling.
