Book
It is 1796. Duval Harlington, recently released from a French prison, is on his way home. He must reach his late father's estate Muchmore House before the following evening if he is to inherit it. But the inheritance rests on another condition: he must also be married. He is at a market, hoping to buy a fast horse, when he hears about a wife sale. He takes his chance and makes an extravagant bid for young widow, Edmée Hyde. To his delight and dismay, the bid is accepted and they marry, only to find that he and Edmée are both hiding life-threatening secrets.
