A Perilous Engagement
Emily Hendrickson
A Dangerous Inheritance
After the untimely death of his reckless cousin Ivor,
Jordan Robards inherits a barony-and the wealth,
property, and responsibility that go with the title.
Upon moving onto his new estate, Jordan encounters
the things his cousin left behind, including a messy
mansion-and a bereft fiancee.
Lady Ariel, who stands to inherit an enormous fortune
of her own, is definitely the most diverting thing in
the neighborhood. But far from diverting is the
suspicion that Ivor's death may not have been an
accident-and that Jordan himself could be the next
Baron of Harcourt to meet with foul play. Jordan isn't
delighted with the prospect of being in danger. But
solving a mystery-and remaining in Lady Ariel's
vicinity -may be well worth the risk of life and limb....
