Description
Although the widowed Lady Rebecca has sworn off marriage, men are another matter. London's cold winter nights have her dreaming of warmer pursuits-like finding a lover to satisfy her hungry heart. Someone handsome, discreet, and most importantly as uninterested in marriage as she is. Someone like Jack Fulton.
A known adventurer and playboy, Jack seems like the perfect choice. There's just one problem: Jack isn't interested in an affair. He needs the beautiful, mysterious Lady Rebecca to be his wife. And he doesn't have much time to persuade her. A secret from Jack's past is about to surface, and by Christmas Day he'll be either married to Rebecca or dead. (2010)

About the Author
As a child, Jennifer Haymore traveled the South Pacific with her family on their homebuilt sailboat. The months spent on the sometimes-quiet, sometimes-raging seas sparked her love of adventure and grand romance. Since then, she's earned degrees in Computer Science and Education and held various jobs from bookselling to teaching inner-city children to acting, but she's never stopped writing.You can find Jennifer in Southern California trying to talk her husband into yet another trip to England, helping her three children with homework while brainstorming a new five-minute dinner menu, or crouched in a corner of the local bookstore writing her next novel.
You can learn more at her website: www.jenniferhaymore.com.

LOVED IT
This is a wonderfully fun historical romance. This is third book in her series, but I think it can easily stand alone. You will probably want to read the first two, A Hint of Wicked and A Touch of Scandal at one point or another since they are somewhat connected. Lady Rebecca (Becky) has had enough of marriage and sees no point in romance, she wants a fling. Jack looks like the perfect candidate for Becky, but Jack really needs a wife. So, you know where this is going. Except that Jennifer Haymore takes you through a pleasant journey to get to that all important ending. The writing really takes you to another place and time. I enjoyed this one a lot.
