The Ruby Necklace
Martha Kirkland
Love by the Book
Miss Emaline Harrison was as innocent and ignorant
of the ways of the world as only a vicar's daughter could
be. But now she found herself in a position that no vicar's
daughter should ever have to face. She was the widow
of a licentious blueblood after a marriage in name only.
Around her neck was a precious heirloom that some
London gentlemen would kill for. So it was difficult for
Emaline to discern the true motives and intentions of the
seductive suitors swarming around her-most especially
the dashing Captain Geoffrey Beauchamp and
the dazzling Lord Liam Whitcomb.
The only guidance Emaline had was a book of advice.
And though the counsel in this extraordinary guide was
as captivatingly cunning as it was remarkably effective,
following it was sure to lead a lovely young lady
surrounded by such attractive temptation very
dangerously, if delightfully, astray.
