Author:Tracy Anne Warren
After orchestrating a scandalous high-society ruse, Lady Jeannette Brantford is banished from her family's estate in England and sent to live with boring elderly cousins in the Irish countryside. But Jeannette's exile is surprisingly eventful. En route to her dreaded destination, she encounters Darragh O'Brien, a devilishly handsome architect who transforms Jeannette's punishment into a delicious whirlwind of wits, words, and undeniable passion.
But Jeannette is determined to land herself a titled husband and no Irish commoner is going to make her change her mind...
The second part in Tracy Anne Warren's bestselling 'Trap' Trilogy of Regency romances. Other titles in this series are The Husband Trap and The Wedding Trap.
