Description

THE MYSTERY MISTLETOE BRIDE

A woman with no name, no past, no memory—rescued by an earl with his own bitter secrets

On his return from the Peninsular War, Jonathan, Earl of Portbury, appears remote and forbidding, hiding his pain behind a wall of icy formality. Widowed, and childless, Jon needs a new wife, and an heir, but he knows himself to be incapable of love. The obvious solution is a marriage of convenience with a woman of sense.

If he can find one.

On one of Jon's minor estates, the woman he rescued from death, months before, still has no memory and no past, though she has acquired a name—Beth. She is no empty-headed debutante, fresh out of the schoolroom, but a lady of admirable sense and refinement, who devotes her energies to good works. She seems to fulfil all Jon's requirements in a wife.

But Beth is a woman without a past. Is she fit to become Jon's countess?

And how could a marriage be made to work when both of them have so many buried secrets?
