The Bargain Bride

de Barbara Cartland · Publicada por primera vez en 1989

The young Earl of Blakeney, who served with distinction in the Duke of Wellington's army, returned to England and lost all his money at the gaming tables. Lady Aleda was the bride of a stranger! It had happened so quickly--her brother's ruinous debt, then mysterious Doran Winton's sudden appearance, his astonishing offer... Of the man she had wed, Aleda knew nothing, only that he was recently returned from abroad, and that his tall, authoritative presence somehow... disturbed her innocent senses. Nevertheless, the captivating, proud young aristocrat was determined that their marriage would be in name only. And--to Aleda's bewilderment--her handsome husband seemed to agree!
