Wild Lily
2021
An American heiress with a fortune—and no desire to wed for a drafty castle—or a cold, indifferent husband.
A marquess with a dim view of marriage, debts—and a conscience that won’t let him wed for money.
Then he meets a woman whom he adores. Can he admit he loves her for herself?
Can she surrender to a man who fears the high price of love?
Lily Hanniford is an American heiress with beauty, wits–and the unique desire to wed for more than a drafty castle and a loveless marriage.
The Marquess of Chelton needs money. A lot of it. Not an affair. Especially not with the delightful American who believes wedded bliss should include such ridiculous ideas as laughter—and love.
But they both desire what they should not want—each other. Too bad, passion has prices. And both Lily and Chelton are caught.
Is the cost of love too high a price to pay for Chelton?
And is the cost of surrender too dear a price to pay for Lily?
