Search - The Aristocrat

He's an American football professional whose father was English. He inherits a title and little else unless he marries a woman chosen by his now-deceased grand-uncle. What to do, what to do?

From the back of the book: What would an American football star do if he suddenly found himself an English lord? It wasn't something pro quarterback Brant Asher had ever bothered to think about---until the day he learned of his inheritance. He was now Viscount Asherwood, heir to an English estate and a whole lot of trouble.
Brant had inherited the obligation to marry Daphne, charitably described to him as an ugly duckling. This wasn't and attactive prospect for a man who enjoyed the pleasures of bachelor life---until he met the lady in question. Her reputation was obviously undeserved, because she was no ugly duckling, she was a beautiful swan.
