About the book

Blake Sefton had married Sapphire to acquire her father's Cotswolds farm. And at first she'd been too besotted with him to realize that his passion burned for his mistress, Miranda, not for his virgin bride. Then Sapphire had discovered Blake's secret love letters and the reason he'd been unable to bring himself to share his wife's bed. Painfully disillusioned, she'd run away and divorced him. Now four years later she was considering remarrying Blake--temporarily--to ease her dying father's mind. After all, Blake hadn't desired her before, so what would he want with her now?
