A Hint Of Scandal Alexander, Duke of Westlake, was riding through the English countryside when he was set upon by two highwaymen and wounded by a pistol shot to the shoulder. Unconscious from loss of blood and delirious with fever, he is found by the Tichley family and nursed back to health by the sensible Bella. Although related to an earl, Bella has never been enticed by the pomp and circumstance of the ton, and is grateful her father doesn’t have money for her coming-out. But while caring for Westlake—an admitted rakehell—she discovers that there’s more to him than his less than sterling reputation. But then Bella finds her own reputation at stake when she and Westlake are left alone without chaperones for one night. To cease the scandalous talk, they agree to wed—and discover a love between them that neither of them sought…
