She couldn't forget ... He wouldn't forgive ...
Wealthy squire's daughter Margaret Honeywell was always meant to marry her neighbour, Frederick Burton-Smythe, but it's bastard-born Nicholas Seaton who has her heart. Raised alongside her on her father's estate, Nick is the rumoured son of notorious highwayman Gentleman Jim. When Fred frames him for theft, Nick escapes into the night, vowing to find his legendary sire. But Nick never returns. A decade later, he's long been presumed dead.
After years spent on the continent, John Beresford, Viscount St. Clare has finally come home to England. Tall, blond and dangerous, he's on a mission to restore his family's honour. If he can mete out a bit of revenge along the way, so much the better. But he hasn't reckoned for Maggie Honeywell. She's bold and beautiful and entirely convinced he's someone else.
As danger closes in, St. Clare is torn between love and vengeance. Will he sacrifice one to gain other? Or, with a little daring, will he find a way to have them both?
