Lord Huntingdon's Legacy
Emily Hendrickson
Counting on Fate
Shortly before his death, the Earl of Huntingdon altered
his will--leaving the bulk of his fortune to his distant
cousin, Marcus. Now the earl's daughter, Charis, is
virtually penniless-and absolutely heartbroken. Her only
hope is to find a wealthy husband--and fast...
Accompanied by her mother and sister, Charis takes up
residence in Marcus's lavish London estate. But she soon
finds that most all of the city's bachelors are insipid,
boorish--or both. In fact, the only man she finds at all
intriguing is her handsome cousin himself! Determined to
deny the passion that inflames her heart whenever thy
touch, she asks Marcus to help her hunt for a husband. But
there is a shortage of eligible men on the market--and soon
Charis must match wits with a mean-spirited minx in a
desperate fight for Marcus's heart...
