Synopsis: Widowed by the Battle of Waterloo, the ladies of Lyttlefield Park return in &“a gripping story of love that won&’t be denied and hard-fought happiness&” (Fresh Fiction). The widowed Lady Stephen Tarkington, Fanny to her friends, has finished mourning her cad of a husband and is ready to enjoy her freedom. The kind of freedom neither a gently bred miss nor a close-watched wife is permitted: dressing up as Aphrodite for a masquerade, drawing gentlemen away from the party, and hinting at late-night assignations with her dance partners. All is going pleasurably according to plan—until the Roman god Fanny kisses during a masquerade turns out to be Matthew, Lord Lathbury, whose proposal she refused years ago . . . Lathbury is charming, passionate, inventive, everything Fanny wants in a lover—but unfortunately, he&’s on the hunt for a wife. He&’s more than willing to use all his wicked skills to persuade her back to the altar, but he can&’t wait forever. And now Fanny&’s position is more precarious than she once thought. If the tongues of the ton set to wagging, it&’s possible no offer in the world will save her from ruin. But does she want to be saved? &“Well worth the read . . . I did enjoy the unique spin that Jaxon pulled with this book and seeing this story develop . . . it was so beautifully done.&”—Addicted to Romance
