One shooting star. One forbidden kiss. One marriage he swore would never happen…
Impetuous, beautiful, and headstrong Lady Annabelle Montrose tracks Viscount Sterling Randall, the scoundrel she’s convinced bears the blame for her brother’s death, to his remote castle hideaway to demand his confession.
But when conniving robbers and disloyal servants leave her stranded in a blizzard, she’s forced to seek refuge with her nemesis instead.
Although Sterling has no choice but to take her in, he is not at all pleased.
The debutante who, months ago, took offense at his refusal to fall at her feet epitomizes the pretentious, marriage-minded females he learned to avoid years ago.
And though he suspects the stubborn minx’s scandalous arrival sans chaperone is exactly what it appears–a blatant ploy to entrap him–his own maddening attraction to the chit tempts him to play right into her hands.
But it’s glimpsing the kind soul hidden beneath years of neglect that truly threatens his resolve.
And though she clings to the belief that Sterling caused her family’s pain, a thrumming desire she longs to explore wars with her hunger for vengeance.
Will the fiery passion neither can vanquish light their way to a happily-ever-after, or will their pasts, and the grim truth of that fateful night, prove too damning to overcome?
Beautiful Viscount, Beastly Bride is the witty third book in the “Hidden Treasures” Victorian romance series.
