Lady Alexandra's Lover

Lady Alexandra MacIntyre has made up her mind. Having grown up in near poverty, she's marrying for money-a lot of money-and she'll do anything to achieve her goal...even get herself caught in a compromising situation by her overprotective and smugly conventional-although achingly handsome-new stepbrother, Lord Evan Xavier.

Evan, the second son of the Earl of Brighton, considers Alexandra a genuine pain in his arse. She's beautiful, yes, but also headstrong and lacking in social graces and respect for authority. Unfortunately, while his father and her mother are away on their wedding trip, she is his responsibility. When she announces her plan to travel to London, he has no choice but to go along as her protector.

When the two are stranded after a carriage accident, circumstances spiral out of control, and the heat between them can't be denied. Rescue is on its way, but Alexandra still has her own agenda...
