Book 5 of The Curse of True Love Series
James Arrington fled to the continent to escape his gambling debts. Now he has returned to London, eager to make amends and secure his financial future—by marrying an heiress.
A chance encounter with Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, threatens to derail these plans because James falls instantly, inexplicably, in love with a woman he hasn't even set eyes on.
Fortune is smiling on this charming scoundrel, for the stranger who stole James' heart is an heiress. All he has to do is convince this fierce beauty, as well as himself, that he is worthy of being her husband.
Cecily Honeyfield has been wary of charmers her entire life. She rarely lets down her guard and is well-accustomed to fending off unwelcome suitors—at sword point if needed. She isn't about to lose her wealth, or her heart, just because a gentleman is witty and handsome and possesses an irresistible smile.
Yet this fortune hunter is unlike the others seeking to enrich themselves at her expense. His every word and deed makes Cecily feel that she, not her money, is the treasure he truly desires.
Can Cecily trust that she has finally found the one who is worth risking it all? Or will love remain a luxury neither of them can afford?
