BY LOVE SURPRISED Lady Aubree Berford was a beautiful young innocent, but also a creature of spirit and pride, befitting the daughter of a duke. Certainly she would never become the latest conquest of the infamous Earl of Heathmont, the most notorious rake in the realm. But now she was not Heathmont's conquest but instead was his bride in what was supposed to be a marriage-in-name-only...struggling to stop him from violating his pledge not to touch her and struggling even harder to keep herself from wanting him to...as innocence and experience joined to teach each other how helpless both were in the passionate power of a love that would not be denied.
