Lady Rogue
Amanda McCabe
When impoverished Alexander Kenton falls deeply in love with Georgina Beaumont, an independently wealthy artist, he learns some difficult lessons about marriage-and money...
Although she is not one of the ton, independently wealthy
Georgina Beaumont is accepted by them--not merely because
of her lifelong friendship with a titled lady, but because
she is an artist whose portraits grace the walls of
Society's elite. A fiery spirit with a strong, independent
will, she has proven herself the equal of any man--and she
believes she doesn't need one to make her happy.
Alexander Kenton, the Duke of Wayland, retired from
military service and discovered that his brother had
gambled away his family's fortune, laving his mother and
sister nearly destitute. Only by marrying within the
aristocracy can he help his family regain their place in
Society. But Alexander has fallen in love with Georgina,
and he's afraid that she'll think he's after her money.
Even worse, he's afraid that she truly doesn't want to be
married...
