A Bride for a Rogue

Formerly titled Bride of Falcon

Ivonne Wimpleton never imagined her first London Season would end in heartbreak. She thought her future was secure with the charming, witty Chancy Faulkenhurst-until he vanished without a word, leaving her with a broken heart and whispered rumors that cut deeper than any blade. Now, five Seasons later, Ivy bears not only the weight of that betrayal but a lingering injury that has made her the target of fortune hunters and scoundrels. Resigned to spinsterhood, she is stunned when Chance returns to London, as handsome as she remembered, but now haunted by secrets too.

Chance left England for India, determined to earn a fortune worthy of asking for Ivy's hand in marriage-a goal that carried him through endless hardships and mortal danger. He fought for his life more than once, only to return home scarred, disappointed, and as penniless as the day he left. Worse still, he is stunned to discover that Ivy believes he never wrote her. He poured his love into every word-every sentence a confession of his longing, every page a promise of what he hoped could be theirs. But somehow, no letters ever reached her.

As family secrets threaten Ivy's future and Chance's father plots a marriage of convenience for his son, their paths collide in a world where scandal and deception lurk in every shadow. In London's glittering ballrooms and quiet drawing room corners, Ivy and Chance battle for the love that once came so easy-but now hangs by a thread.
