Fair Deception

When Kit Kydd rescues Susanna Fair from an abduction attempt, it seems to be fate—Kit needs to appear settled to be made his great-aunt's heir, and Susanna is an actress. By pretending to be engaged for the duration of a visit to Lady Penfold, Susanna will be hidden and Kit can protect her from further danger. But Lady Penfold lives in the horse-racing town of Newmarket, which holds the secret of Susanna's scandalous past. Meanwhile, the dishonorable Rafe Warwick has 2,000 guineas riding on making Susanna his mistress—and he doesn't take defeat lightly.
