Publisher's summary

When Clara Mayfield helps her sister elope, she's prepared for the scandal to seal her fate as a spinster. What she doesn't expect is to find herself engaged to the vile Baron Rutherford as a means of salvaging her family's reputation. Determined not to be chained to a man she loathes, Clara slips out of Essex and sheds her identity: She becomes Helen, maid at the Earl of Ashworth's country estate.

William, Lord Ashworth, is attempting to rebuild his life after the devastating accident that claimed the lives of his entire family, save his beloved sister and niece. Haunted by memories of what was and determined to live up to the title he never expected to inherit, William doesn't have time for love. What he needs is a noble and accomplished wife, one who can further the Ashworth line and keep the family name untarnished.

From their first encounter, the attraction between them is undeniable. But Clara knows William is falling for Helen, a woman who doesn't even exist. The question is, if she reveals the truth about her identity, can she trust the broken William to forgive her lie and stand by her side when scandal - and the baron - inevitably follow her to his door?

Contains mature themes.

pretty good

Would have been much better if there was a reduction of the statement "we can never be together"... when we all knew from to get go, yes in deed they can be together.

Pretty Good

This book was good, I enjoyed it. I like a brave heroin. I also liked that the hero was instantly attracted to the heroin no matter her status.

Fantastic!

I loved all the characters in this audiobook. The story was full of suspense, romance and such vivid details that I felt I was there. I downloaded this one to listen to again and again.

Repetitive

Love the narrator. I’m on chapter 11 and so far the we can be together has repeated so many times it’s not building to the inevitable it’s becoming irritable. Would have been better to cut sis of those first 11 chapters right out.
