About the book
England, 1799. Alyna saw no escape. Her mother, a selfish and cruel woman, insisted that she marry the wealthy Prince Ahmadi of Kahriz, a man who made the beautiful Alyna cringe in horror. She saw only one way out -- a cold leap into the Thames. And she would have done it if one man had not saved her. That man was Lord Dorrington, London's famous dandy, pupil of Beau Brummel, and the most sought after bachelor in England. But now the danger had just begun for Alyna. Hunted by the Prince and his allies, she was trapped in a desperate web of agonizing fears, murder and intrigue. Could Lord Dorrington save her one more time?
