Borrowed Dreams

THE PROPOSAL

Driven to undo the evil wrought by her dead husband, Millicent Wentworth must find a way to save her estate and free the innocent people he enslaves. Her only hope is a marriageamp;mdash;in name onlyamp;mdash;to the notorious widower the Earl of Aytoun.

THE GROOM

THE DESIRE

Under Millicent's gentle gaze, Lyon begins to regain his strength and his wounded heart begins to heal. And soon Millicent discovers that beneath his unruly beard and grim demeanor, Lyon just may be the most handsomeamp;mdash;and caringamp;mdash;man she's ever encountered. For the first time in her life, she realizes that she is aliveamp;mdash;alive with a smoldering desire for the one man she'll love forever . . .
