Publisher Description
A Cornish woman auctioned off to pay her husband's debts soon finds herself at the manor of an enigmatic widower in this gripping Regency romance.
A Bartered Lady
Lord James Harkness is shocked to discover a "bride sale" taking place in his small English village—and surprised by the depth of his feelings for the unfortunate gentlewoman being auctioned off by a disreputable husband. But is it honor and nobility that compel James to outbid the townfolk for the proud, beautiful lady—or is it something more akin to . . . desire?
A Mysterious Lord
Verity Osborne is not sure whether good fortune or ill brought her to this dark, brooding man and his lonely manor house on the moors. Local talk brands James Harkness as evil—but Verity senses a gentleness underneath. She dearly longs for her liberty, but his sensuous touch causes her to stay. However, James must first trust Verity with his secrets if they are ever to share love's rapturous freedom. And will the promised passion she sees flaming in his eyes warm Verity's heart . . . or burn her?

Nice story
The storyline was good. The book filled with compassion and kindness.
Entertaining
A wife sale… plots within plots… engaging characters- what’s not to love?
Excellent story
I had trouble putting this book down as it’s one I thought of while doing other things and even while trying to sleep. It has an intriguing plot and a surprise twist near the end. The two main characters and supporting characters seemed real.
