Heaven Sent (The Wrong One) has been re-titled, The Viscount's Heir, under Dragonblade Publishing. It is the second book in the Heirs of Cornwall Series and the story of Cassie's older brother, Allayne, heir of Viscount Rose. Please note, this copy is a PREVIEW ONLY. A professed bachelor, Allayne Carlyle refuses to heed to his mother's constant grousing on his lack of marital interest. He is simply tired of it all--his mother's unending parade of debutantes that she hopes might gain his attention, and the ceaseless teasing and ribbing from his best friends, Jeremy and Richard, who are both happily married. Which is the reason why, he will indulge his mother's request one last time--that he spend a fortnight at a house party in Bath, supposedly to meet an earl's daughter or some such, which is just another way of disguising the fact that his mother intended to have him leg-shackled to yet another insipid debutante. But what a pleasant adventure the trip is coming around to--who cares about the earl's daughter, when her beautiful maid makes his heart pound and his loins...well, never mind. For the first time in his adult life, he is certainly looking forward to fulfilling his mother's schemes like the good son he is, albeit, with a slight change in plans.
