An Uncommon Courtship
Martha Kirkland
Rascal's Return
Miss Eloise Kendall had long known that Gregory Ward
was a rascal in the first degree. So when he returned
from London to visit Threwsbury Park-and raise
money for his burgeoning political career-she
assumed his warm demeanor belied a heart as cold as
ice. Eloise hadn't forgotten the times before when he'd
embarrassed her. And no longer the schoolgirl
Gregory would remember from his youth, lovely
Eloise would resist his superficial charms.
But when her young brother is kidnapped, Gregory
goes into action, with money for a ransom and cold
steel waiting for the brutes who would harm young
Jeremy. And in the heat of the moment, the mistakes of
the past melt away like winter's frost-and Eloise and
Gregory's love is left to bloom
