Book Overview
Isabella Hartfield has long suspected her marriage of convenience seven years ago to an aging Marquess was the motive for Tristan's sudden military enlistment. For years she has harbored guilt over driving him into danger. Now, she is widowed and Tristan has returned. In an attempt to repair the damage she did years ago, Isabella takes a Valentine's Day wager that she can find Tristan a wife from among the Ton by June, never daring to dream the wife he wants is her. The closer she gets to finding him a bride, the more her heart aches for him. For seven years Tristan Moreland has lived a double life on the war torn Continent as a secret agent for the Crown in the guise of a womanizing socialite officer. Now he is ready to come home to claim his land, his title and a wife--the love of his youth, Isabella Hartfield. But before Tristan can lay claim to his happiness and her heart, he must ferret out one last enemy of England who will go to any length to see Tristan dead. When his nemesis makes Isabella a target in order to draw him out, Tristan must choose between protecting his country or his love.

Great Historical Fiction
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Wonderfully written historical piece. I really enjoyed the story line and interesting characters. I learned a lot about this time period as well. I only wish the book had been longer. Didn't want it to end. :)
MUST read!

I was lucky enough to have a "sneak peak" and thoroughly enjoyed the book. Ms. Poppen immerses you in the period and you can't help but fall in love with the wonderful characters. This is a fabulous adventure!
Fantastic Historical Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I had the opportunity to read an advance copy of this book and frankly, it was one of the best historicals I have read in a long time. Ms. Poppen has shown a fantastic command of the regency period within a storyline that is a true adventure. The dialogue is witty and fast paced and the plot is fresh and inviting. Certainly a must read! Can't wait to read more from Ms. Poppen
