About the book
American heiress Alyssa Lockhart has been banished to England in disgrace, ordered to find a husband who can tame her wild ways. Riding alone through the foggy moors, she arrives at the imposing gates of Penridge House-and finds herself under the unsettling gaze of its darkly handsome new master, Colonel Harris Trevell. Newly returned from India, he possesses an aura as deeply erotic and sensual as the gorgeous silks he imports. Alyssa is completely mesmerized by his smoldering eyes and masculine strength, but she cannot ignore the furtive whispers that Harris Trevell murdered his cousin for his title…and his wife. Now she must discover the truth about his enigmatic man. But it may already be too late. For as dangerous passion sweeps her into a whirlwind of delirious ecstasy, Alyssa knows she has found the only answer her heart demands…even if it puts her own life at risk….
