The Convenient Bride
Teresa McCarthy
A DANGEROUS LIAISON
Facing financial ruin, Lord Clayton Clearbrook inherits
his uncle's fortune with the stipulation that he must marry
within three weeks—an opportunity he dare not refuse. Not
many weddings in the ton are based on love, after all-and a
bride of convenience would suit Clayton perfectly. Knowing
time is of the essence, he sets his sights on Miss Briana
Garland, a bluestocking who has adored him since childhood.
But to Clayton’s dismay, the lady shuns his advances.
Though Briana still has feelings for the handsome lord,
she has vowed never to marry. Besides, she has other
things on her mind, namely taking part in a secret mission
to break up the assassination attempt of the Prince
Regent! However, her rejection does not stop Lord Clayton.
And as he intensifies his pursuit of her, the lady finds
herself falling in love...and in more jeopardy than she
ever bargained for...
