A Marriage of Necessity

He offered one night. She needs a lifetime...



When Viscountess Kinsley's father lost all but their home and then drank himself to death, creditors stood ready to seize what remained. Anne's only hope of saving her family is to find a husband through Lady Peddington's School for Young Ladies. Only, upon graduation, Anne finds herself the victim of jealous gossip that claims she seeks multiple lovers. Now, no respectable man will have her.



Kennedy Douglas, Viscount Buchanan, has refused to marry-until his terminally ill father threatens to marry Kennedy's younger sister to a known wife-beater unless Kennedy immediately weds and produces an heir. The man known as The Marriage Maker matches Kennedy with the ravishing Viscountess Kinsely, but time is running out. Kennedy's father is declining rapidly, and he's the only one who knows where Kennedy's sister is being held against her will.
