A Ring From A Marquess

Mistress or Wife?

Independent Margot de Bryun has no intention of giving a man control of her life! Although handsome rake Stephen Standish, Marquess of Fanworth, does pique her interest… Maybe a man can offer other advantages?

Stephen sees Margot as perfect marriage material – talented, intelligent and alluring. But when a stolen family ruby is traced to the jewellery shop Margot owns, infuriated, Stephen demands she become his mistress. Except Margot’s not one to be easily tamed – and, whether she be mistress or wife, sparks will certainly fly!

About the author

Christine Merrill wanted to be a writer for as long as she can remember. During a stint as a stay-at-home-mother, she decided it was time to “write that book.” She could set her own hours and would never have to wear pantyhose to work! It was a slow start but she slogged onward and seven years later, she got the thrill of seeing her first book hit the bookstores. Christine lives in Wisconsin with her family.
