Hearts Beguiled

the long version

There was magic the moment they met... She was a flame-haired beauty fleeing from those who would kidnap her young son, the duke's only heir. He was a brilliant scientist- handsome, dynamic...and completely reckless in the presence of the spirited, independent young widow whose flashing eyes set his blood on fire. His searing kisses left her shaken, yet helpless to deny him or her own desire. But both were concealing dark and dangerous secrets- secrets that hinted at lies and betrayal...and threatened to destroy even the idyllic love that had promised to bind them forever.
