Lisa Berne's Penhallow Dynasty continues with a pair of star-crossed childhood friends who meet again years later--and find love where they least expect it . . .

Katherine Brooke may be a fabulously wealthy heiress, but she's trapped, a pawn in her parents' ruthless game to marry her into the nobility. Then Captain Hugo Penhallow--so charming, as handsome as a Greek god--comes into her life once more, and suddenly she sees a chance to be free.

As a Penhallow, his is one of the highest names in the land, but still his family is facing ruin. So Katherine boldly proposes an exchange: his name for her money. But only if Hugo understands it's merely a practical arrangement, and that she's not surrendering herself entirely.

Back from eight years in America and determined to give his younger siblings a better life, Hugo agrees. He's never fallen in love, so why not? Yet neither of them guesses that this marriage will become far, far more than they ever dreamed of . . .

Lisa Berne read her first Georgette Heyer book at fourteen-it was the effervescent Lady of Quality-and was instantly captivated. Later, she was a graduate student, a grant writer, and a teacher-and now writes historical romance for Avon Books, with her first three books set in Regency-era Britain. She lives with her family in the Pacific Northwest. Please visit Lisa on the web at LisaBerne.com.
