Читать книгу A Scandalous Liaison - Elizabeth Rolls - Страница 2

Six years ago, the rakish Viscount St. Austell betrayed his best friend and his own sense of honor by seducing Lionel’s sister, Loveday Trehearne. Now St. Austell has hired Lionel as an artist and is reunited with Loveday once again. Though she is as beautiful as ever, Loveday lives in poverty…and a different sort of mystery seems to be haunting the Trehearnes, too. The scandalous viscount is determined to help Loveday despite her resistance—but his toughest challenge will be fighting the passion that still burns between them…

This story is for Anne who answered so many questions about painting murals, and for Tony – whose long-standing friendship is unshakeable, even to the extent of answering my very nosy questions about dreams.

And it’s for Smokey, who snoozed by my desk for so many years and stories.

I miss you, old friend.
