About the book
MISS CATELYN FITZSIMON HAD NO FEAR OF GENTLEMEN... With her beauty, birth, wit and wealth, Miss Catelyn Fitzsimon proved more than a match for the most gallant and greedy gentlemen of London society. First she toyed with them, then she spurned them, until her father was forced to send her into social exile on the estate of relatives in far-off Wales. She had strict orders to come to her senses and choose a proper lord to marry. Little did either Catelyn or her father dream that the man she would meet there would not be the kind of gentleman that Catelyn was so accustomed to conquering... but rather a figure of mystery and a legend of lawlessness in the habit of stealing what he wished, whether it was a purse of gold--or a haughty heart...
