A Most Sinful Proposal

Marissa Rotherhild has a husband in mind, but when she attends a weekend party at his home, Abbey Thorne Manor, it is not George who is there to greet her, but his older brother Valentine. Handsome, yes, fascinating, also yes, but Valentine is everything she promised herself she would never marry. A renowned expert on roses, he would surely neglect her just as her botanically obsessed parents did. Lord Valentine Kent has been determined to find the Crusader's Rose for as long as he can remember, so he mustn't allow himself to become side-tracked by Marissa Rotherhild. And yet he can't seem to help it. She is too good for George. In fact the only person who should possess her is Valentine himself, despite all of his arguments against it. But when she joins him on his rose-finding quest, it feels as if they were made for each other. Now they just need to discover who is threatening to harm them.
