baby children historical love marriage murder pregnancy proposal rake regency regency-england

Jasper Keyes is in over his head. His older brother has just passed, leaving behind a string of problems for Jasper to solve. Among these lies a young woman, her honor in the hands of dead man. And beyond that? Perhaps someone with malicious intent for a family who knows nothing of the debt that led to Robert's death. 

Kassandra Williams swore she was in love. And her love lied to her and left her pregnant. In the midst of such a situation, his younger brother appears with news of his death and a proposal. But perhaps the whirlwind romance that left her alone was better than being plunged into a plot to solve her lover's murder for the sake of her child's safety.All Rights Reserved
