A Dangerous Liaison
Facing financial ruin, Lord Clayton Clearbook inherits his uncle's fortune with the stipulation that he must marry within three weeks – an opportunity he dare not refuse. Not many weddings in the ton are based on love, after all, and a bride of convenience would suit Clayton perfectly. Knowing time is of the essence, he sets his sights on Miss Briana Garland, a bluestocking who has adored him since childhood But to Clayton's dismay, the lady shuns his advances.
Though Briana still has feeling for the handsome lord, she has vowed never to marry. Besides, she has other things on her mind, namely taking part in a secret mission to break up an assassination attempt on the Prince Regent! However, her rejection does not stop Lord Clayton. And as he intensifies his pursuit of her the lady finds herself falling in love...and in more jeopardy then she ever bargained for.
