His Perfect Game
by Jenn Langston
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greyson Thorpe, Viscount Merrick, wants respectability above all
else. Knowing the fastest way to achieve that state comes through marriage, he
challenges Hammond Everett, the Duke of Donetic to a card game. After winning
the match, the duke agrees to exchange his daughter’s hand in marriage for the
forgiveness of his debts.
Willimena Abigail Everett had no desire to marry after
experiencing the violent nature of men at her father’s hand. When Viscount
Merrick arrives, she has no choice other than to obey her father and marry him.
Will she be able to set aside her previous beliefs about men and judge her
husband by his own merits?
After obtaining good social standing, Greyson sends his bride to
the country;
however, he finds himself missing her. Following her to the
estate, he discovers she had been living a double life. Will he discover her
secrets and control his burning desire for her at the same time?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Willimena,” her father snapped, drawing her
attention back to him. “I have found a husband for you.”
Abigail gaped at her father. Shock robbed her of
the ability to speak. After years of avoiding the fate she would suffer with a
husband, in one instant, all her efforts had been rendered useless.
Her head spun. Surely this was a bad dream, or at
the very least a misunderstanding. Sliding her eyes to the unknown man, she
hoped he would refute her father’s words. Unfortunately, his unblinking stare
only served to confirm it.
As she surveyed him, steely grey eyes assessed her
from under dark lashes. His black hair was cropped short around a masculine
face. A dusting of hair shaded his cheeks as if he had forgotten to shave that
morning. Standing taller than her father, she found him to be quite an imposing
figure.
“I-I don’t understand,” Abigail sputtered.
“This is Viscount Merrick, and, as of right now,
you two are betrothed.”
