Two
Little Lies, by Liz Carlyle
Handsome
scoundrel Quin Hewitt has been living a devil-may-care existence in London
for years. But when his father dies unexpectedly, Quin finds himself
saddled with an earldom he never wanted, a country estate that seems to suck
the very life out of him, and a mama who won’t quit crying. Reluctantly,
Quin faces up his family duty, and decides to find himself a sensible,
suitable wife so he can beget a sensible, suitable heir. And who better to
marry than his best friend’s governess, the proud and pretty Miss Esmée
Hamilton?
But when Quin’s euphoric
mother throws an impromptu betrothal party, Quin finds himself faced with a
very unexpected guest. The beautiful Viviana Alessandri has been called by
duty back to England, the land she loathes. No longer the unknown opera
singer Quin once kept as his mistress, Viviana is now the powerful Contessa
Bergonzi di Vicenza, worshiped throughout Europe for her voice and her passion. But despite her new title and wealth,
to Quin’s eyes, his old love has not changed. She is not suitable. She is
not sensible. And she still takes his breath away. |
