WHEN AN HEIRESS AND A ROGUE MEET... Although her father sent her to England to find a titled husband, beautiful and headstrong Margaret Van Alden rejects every fortune hunter she meets. The only man who does excite her is Trevor St. James, an unsentimental rake if ever there was one. Fresh from daring exploits in Cairo, and keen on restoring his family's wealth, Trevor sets in motion a trap to seduce Margaret. ...PASSION GETS IN THE WAY Margaret soon discovers Trevor's shocking deception. And he realizes, too late, that she has reawakened dreams of love he has long denied—a love that could perish before it has a chance to take flight.
