Lady Althea’s Bargain
Gayle Buck
The Bewildered Bride
Lovely Lady Althea Hawthorne devoutly hoped that the man
she had married was different from the other men she had
known. As a girl, she has seen her rakish father betray
her mother. As a young woman, she had fled her
stepfather’s odious advances. Determined to seize control
of her destiny, Althea left her home and found refuge in
the arms of a childhood friend. Lord Gareth Lynley seemed the soul of honor and kindness
when he made his starling marriage proposal. He seemed
even better on their brief but blissful honeymoon. But
when Althea followed him to Europe against his wishes, just
as war was breaking out, she discovered an unexpected side
of her soldier husband—just as she realized the secrets of
her own heart. Could Althea make her marriage of
convenience become a real marriage of love and passion?
