From the back of the book:
Give up or give in?
Reliability. Trustworthiness. Dignity. These are only a few of the characteristics supporting Marcus Sherbook's reputation as the perfect gentleman. Or *almost* perfect, as there is one significant smirch on his record: the rebellion of one Miss Isabel Denham who, at the age of seventeen, defied Marcus's guardianship, eloped and fled to India. The widowed Isabel returned to England ten years ago, and has been making Marcus's cool grey eyes flash ever since.... not that he'd give her the satisfaction of knowing it. But when Isabel is threatened by the schemes of a blackmailer, Marcus's actions to protect her lead to yet another spontaneous marriage - and kindle the embers of desire never acknowledged, but now impossible to deny.
I really have to say that I enjoyed this book very much. I was drawn in from the first chapter and really enjoyed how they explained the relationship between Marcus and Isabel.
There are many dynamics to this story and it's a good book to read on a cold day cuddled in blankets.
