About the Characters
Charity Bothwell |
Jared Blakeslee |
Lady Charity Cavendish is the beautiful daughter of a Duke, and a member of the upper echelons of England's Society. She is also best friends with the ton's favorite outcast, Allegra Chesterfield. When the devastatingly handsome Lord Edgerton expresses interest in her intelligent, but highly volatile friend, Charity forms a plan to bring them together. Unbeknownst to her, Allegra has plans of her own.
When sparks fly between her hot-tempered, stubborn friend and the rakish viscount, Charity is hopeful the two will fall in love. Unfortunately, love is often messy and unpredictable. And, while love may bloom for others, Charity's life is about to change forever. |
Jared Blakeslee has been close friends with Ian McClellan since childhood. He is as opposite as night is to day from Lord Edgerton, both in temperament as well as in looks. Despite their differences, they are nearly inseparable. So, when the viscount is assaulted, it is only natural that Jared insists on helping Ian bring the culprits to justice.
But Jared has secrets of his own and they are threatening to come tumbling down about his ears; ruining all his plans for a better future. As he assists Ian with the investigation, Jared also finds it increasingly difficult to convince his friend that Allegra Chesterfield and her family are not to be trusted. |
