For Allegra Proctor, tutoring the Earl of Wrexham's son has its disadvantages—namely the widowed earl himself. Arrogant, cold, and moody, Wrexham is also distractingly dashing. But Allegra only needs pretend long enough to right the wrong against her father, instigated by the earl's dastardly neighbor. Then her charge discovers her intent, forcing her to face Wrexham. Having his quiet existence turned on its ear puts Wrexham on edge, but he has never turned his back on a lady in distress. Together, the pair plunges into a scheme to bring the villain to justice, and awakens a second chance at passion that neither dreamed possible.
