The Second Lady Southvale

the long version

Miss Rosalind Carberry defied all warnings when she accepted Lord Philip Southvale's proposal. Her father distrusts the breathtakingly handsome, fabulously wealthy Englishman, and meanwhile rumors continue to run riot about his persisting passion for his beautiful first wife. Overshadowing everything is war fever between Philip's country and Rosalind's America. Nonetheless, Rosalind believes his warm words and her heart's ardent answer, and alone she sets sail to England to join him in wedlock. It is only when she lands that she discovers the awesome odds against her. She comes face to face with a rival who seems to hold all the cards in a game of love with no rules.
