Synopsis

Penelope Weston refuses to like Benedict Lennox, Lord Atherton, despite his charm and good looks — she can't forgive how he abandoned a friend in need, nor how he once courted her sister Abigail. He's the last man she'd ever marry, if only she weren't so drawn to the arrogant scoundrel. Benedict needs a wealthy bride to escape his controlling father, and spirited Penelope doesn't fit his plans for a quiet, sensible match — until a good deed goes wrong and scandal links his name to hers. Forced toward marriage, he discovers she's far more beguiling and passionate than he expected. Can a match begun in scandal become a true love match?
