The Spanish Lady

the long version

SHE HAD BEEN SENT TO DREARY ENGLAND TO NAB AN EVEN DREARIER HUSBAND! Although Lady Helena's cousins and heritage were in London, her heart belonged to her beloved Spain. And though the idea of matrimony was not unappealing, she would marry only for love -- passionate and endless -- and if those heartless, mercenary, and dull English men she'd been introduced to were typical of the candidates, she'd pass, gracias. Edward's first error was to take Helena for a milliner, causing her to unleash her flashing look and fiery words upon him. Though her luminous eyes and flirtatious manner were tempting, Helena would not find him an easy victim. Still, if it was a grand match she wanted, he would introduce her to all the great men of England. Better they than he to acquire this headstrong miss with no sense of propriety. Cupid, however, had other plans.
