They say former rakes make the best husbands...

Lady Ashbury, however, knows otherwise. Now, she has but one demand for both her daughters: marry a man as pristine as freshly-fallen snow. Too bad for her that her youngest daughter has set her sights in precisely the opposite direction!

Ever the feisty, indignant soul, Annabelle Ashbury would rather marry for love or not at all, even if it means trying her hand at taming Colin Graythorne, Mansforth's most notorious rake. His devilish grins and wicked charm certainly make him a challenge worth pursuing. But will the road to blissful matrimony only grow more difficult? And will she summon the courage necessary to follow her heart's desires?
