A Shocking Delight

Lucinda Potter, daughter of a wealthy merchant, is more interested in trade than in the men after her dowry. When forced to have a London season, Lucy sets out to enjoy herself rather than to find a husband. But once she meets the notorious Earl of Wyvern, her resolve weakens, and when they kiss, it dissolves--even though her instincts warn he's dangerous. Wyvern has a dark secret, which means he must win a rich bride. Lucy seems ideal--not for her beauty and her lively charm, but because at first meeting she seems unlikely to realize the truth . . . As he comes to really know her with each intoxicating kiss, Wyvern realizes she's too clever and honest by far. Marrying Lucy would mean living a lie with the woman he has come to love. Contains mature themes.
