The Road to Temptation

The prevailing wisdom within Society is that the Earl of Granville, heir to the Wiltshire dukedom, would be the Catch of the Century should a woman be fortunate enough to catch him. Once upon a time, Lady Meghan Townsend wished for that woman to be her.

But as events in her life would unfold, that truth no longer holds.

The first time he broke her heart, she’d been fifteen. She had cried until she couldn’t cry anymore.

The second time had been the night of her debut. Then, she hadn’t shed a tear, but the pain hadn’t been any less acute for it.

Then when she least expected it, he proposed! And having finally caught the Catch of the Century, she foolishly thought it impossible for him to break her heart more than he already had.

Sadly, in this instance, the third time was indeed the charm…and she vows it will be the last.
