About the book
She represented a noble investment Lady Morva Eden was living proof the aristocracy's breeding program still existed. Once her family realized her brother's illegitimacy would cost them their nobility, they naturally turned to Morva. And so for a price -- the ancestral home for her grandmother to live in and prestigious employment for the disentitled brother--Morva allowed herself to be practically sold to the new Earl of Howgill, a shrewd Canadian millionaire with an eye for bargains. He planned to turn Ravenscrag into a lucrative tourist resort, but what did he have in mind for Morva?
