An Avon Romance

Lorraine Heath

When Viscount Locksley’s father is consumed by grief-fueled madness after the death of his beloved wife, the young viscount vows to keep love from ever becoming a weakness. But fate has other plans: his sire’s decision to arrange a marriage draws him into a dangerous web of desire, secrets, and shifting loyalties. Enter the vixen—sharp-tongued, independent, and impossible to ignore—whose presence threatens both his carefully guarded control and the fragile peace of the household. As attraction collides with duty, the story explores the fine line between devotion and obsession, and asks whether true love can heal what tragedy has scarred—or simply ignite it again.
