Never Less Than A Lady (Lost Lords)
<i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Mary Jo Putney continues her stunning Lost Lords series with this stirring, sensual story of a rebellious nobleman drawn to a lovely widow with a shocking past.<br><br>As the sole remaining heir to the Earl of Daventry, Alexander Randall knows his duty: find a wife and sire a son of his own. The perfect bride for a man in his position would be a biddable young girl of good breeding. But the woman who haunts his imagination is Julia Bancroft--a village midwife with a dark secret that thrusts her into Randall's protection. <br><br>Within the space of a day, Julia has been abducted by her first husband's cronies, rescued, and proposed to by a man she scarcely knows. Stranger still is her urge to say yes. A union with Alexander Randall could benefit them both, but Julia doubts she can ever trust her heart again, or the fervent desire Randall ignites. Yet perhaps only a Lost Lord can show a woman like Julia everything a true marriage can be. . .<br><br><b>Praise for Loving a Lost Lord</b><br><br>"Intoxicating, romantic and utterly ravishing. . ." --Eloisa James<br><br>"Entrancing characters and a superb plotline. . ." --<i>Publishers Weekly,</i> starred review<br><br>"Will leave readers smiling, breathless, and anxiously awaiting the next adventure. . ." --<i>Library Journal,</i> starred review
