Book Description:

Of all the dukes in England, Jered Marcus Benton, the Duke of Bradford, was the wealthiest, most handsome -- and most arrogant. And of all London's ladies, he wanted the tender obedience of only one -- Caroline Richmond.

She was a ravishing beauty from Boston, with a mysterious past and a fiery spirit. Drawn to the powerful duke, undeterred by his presumptuous airs, Caroline was determined to win his lasting love. But Bradford would bend to no woman -- until a deadly intrigue drew them enticingly close. Now, united against a common enemy, they would discover the power of the magnificent attraction that brought them together...a desire born in danger, but destined to flame into love!

I'm pretty sure I read this book about 20 years ago because a lot of it's familiar but also a little fuzzy. (You know how romance novels can blend one into another...) However, it's still a good read and gets you hooked from the beginning. This one made me laugh and cry and not want to put it down.

I don't understand other reviews not liking this book. In fact it IS one of my favorite Garwood books. Caroline is strong, sassy and sweet. She loves and wants to break this arrogant man, because she knows the love he is capable of. That's where the "battle" lies. This is one of the funniest books I have ever read. Because they are both strong willed, some of the dialogue between them is hillarious which makes the romance between them even better you can just feel it! Enjoy the read

Caroline Richmond was sent away from by father in England to live with her uncle in Boston when she was four years old. She grew up happily on a farm there and came to think of her uncle and aunt as her parents and her cousins as family. She never knew why her father had sent her away, and after fourteen years she'd stoped wondering. But when her real father sends for her to return to England life as she knows it is turned upside down.

While in England Caroline meets the Duke of Bradford. She instantly takes a disliking to him, yet finds herself oddly attracted to him at the same time. Bradford has never met another woman quite like Caroline, and although he doesn't trust that she's really as innocent as she seems, he still vows to have her.

When someone begins threatening Caroline, Bradford and Caroline must work together to end the threats. But Bradford doesn't trust Caroline or his own emotions enough to make things go smoothly.
