Heiress in Love: A Ministry of Marriage Novel
Author: Christina Brooke
Love. The one thing she can't afford . . .
A CONVENIENT MARRIAGE
Jane, Lady Roxdale, has endured one marriage of convenience decreed by the Ministry of Marriage. While she deeply regrets her late husband's death, she is relieved to be free at last. But when a dissolute rake threatens everything Jane holds dear, she must contemplate marrying a second time . . .
AN INCONVENIENT PASSION
Disgraced libertine Constantine Black inherits his cousin Roxdale's land and title – while Roxdale's prim widow is left all the wealth. Constantine is not a marrying man, but wedding Jane is the only way to save the estate from ruin.
Jane resists the smouldering heat between them, desperate not to fall in love with an unrepentant rake. But for the first time ever, Constantine wants more than seduction. He wants all of her – body, heart and soul . . .
