Amanda Quick

The Earl of St. Merryn wants someone to pose as his betrothed for a few weeks among polite society. He has his own agenda to pursue, and a false fiance will keep the husband-hunters at bay while he goes about his business. However, finding the right candidate proves more of a challenge then he expected--until he encounters Miss Elenora Lodge. Elenora's unfortunate circumstances and dreams of a life of independence make the Earl's generous offer undeniably appealing. But she soon discovers this lark will be a far more dangerous adventure than she's been led to believe. Arthur, Earl of St. Merryn, is making a discovery as well: the meek and mild companion he'd initially envisioned has become, in reality, a partner in his quest to catch a killer--and a belle who stirs a wild passion in his heart
