About the book
The black sheep wasn't about to turn white
And that was why Laura didn't relish the idea of telling Alex Gillon he was about to become the Earl of Exonby--and the owner of a Gloucestershire estate.
She liked it even less once she'd met handsome, hard-talking Alex--now a successful businessman in New Mexico. He'd fled England years ago, wanting no part of the title or his family's estate. And he definitely didn't plan to return.
The instant electric attraction that sizzled between them brought conflicts--for Laura believed Alex should forget his bitter past and accept his birthright. Even if that meant sacrificing their love.
