When a Marquess Loves a Woman

As a young, penniless gentleman, Maxwell Harwick knew he had little to offer Juliet Whitethe most beautiful debutante of the seasonexcept his love, and one thoroughly scandalous kiss. But when they were discovered in a compromising position, a nearly ruined Juliet fled into the arms of a rich, older lord... taking Maxs heart with her. Now a widow, Lady Juliet Granworth intends to use the fortune she inherited from her odious husband to build a new life in London. Five years have passed, but shes never forgotten Max or his soul-searing kiss. Yet its clear the newly-minted Marquess of Thayne has not forgiven herafter all, the infuriating man can barely stand the sight of her. But Juliet has endured far too much to give up without a fight and if its a battle of wills he wants, its a battle hell get. He hates her for breaking his heart. She detests him for destroying her future. But beneath all the loathing simmers an intoxicating passion that neither can ignore and the harder they resist, the harder they will inevitably fall.
