EMMA HOLLY

Edward Burbrooke y Florence Fairleigh tienen dos cosas en común: el mismo abogado y un interés urgente en encontrar a la persona adecuada para sus respectivos planes. Edward necesita una mujer que se case con su joven hermano Freddy para acabar con el escandalo que suponen los escarceos homosexuales de este. Florence busca un marido amable, dulce, y, sobre todo, con la suficiente fortuna como para alejar de ella para siempre el fantasma de la pobreza. Con lo que ninguno de los dos contaba es con la torrida atraccion que surgira entre ellos, un deseo irrefrenable que puede cambiarlo todo. ELLA BUSCABA UN MATRIMONIO SIN AMOR Cuando pone pie en Londres, Florence tiene claro que no viene en busca de amor, sino de un marido que solucione su vida, y esta dispuesta a emplear la mitad de la exigua herencia que le ha dejado su padre para conseguirlo. El matrimonio de conveniencia que le propone su abogado con el joven Freddy Burbrooke le parece una solucion practica, casi ideal. Pero si el amor no entra en sus planes ¿por que no puede evitar estremecerse cada vez que esta cerca de Edward, el frio y distante hermano mayor de Freddy? El lo calculo todo, menos su propia y arrolladora pasion...Desde muy joven, Edward se ha visto obligado a cuidar de su querido hermano pequeño, y se ha convertido en un verdadero padre para el. Eficiente y calculador, le ha buscado incluso una esposa para salvaguardar su honor tras el ultimo escandalo. Pero Edward no lo tiene todo controlado. Quiza si no hubiera visto a su futura cuñada aquella tarde, cambiandose ante el espejo, podria sacarsela de la cabeza. Pero ahora, cada vez que esta cerca de ella, todo su planeado esquema parece desmoronarse ante una pasion que no conoce limites.

Un plan perfectamente calculado que, sin embargo, comienza a desmoronarse cuando entre el artista y su modelo nace algo mucho mas poderoso que la pasion estetica. Merry se da cuenta de que ya no esta en juego tan solo su estrategia para evitar el matrimonio. Aquello se esta convirtiendo en algo mas, aunque los dos se esfuerzan en negar sus verdaderos sentimientos. Su amor, sin embargo, esta construido sobre una torre de engaños, y se ha de enfrentar aun a una prueba decisiva... ELLA BUSCABA EL ESCANDALO .... La politica y el matrimonio suelen ser una combinacion nefasta para muchos jovenes corazones. Merry Vance, hija de los duques de Monmouth, no sabe que oscuras razones tiene su madre para insistir en que se case con el heredero de los Althorp, un hombre controlador que no encaja en absoluto con su caracter libre e indomito. Pero si sabe como evitarlo, con un escandalo cuidadosamente controlado que la convierta en un partido no deseado para cualquier caballero con reputacion. Bajo el alias de Mary Colfax se transforma en otra persona. Alguien capaz de permanecer desnuda durante horas ante un hombre, alguien capaz de sucumbir al mas ardiente deseo. ...
