She's a wallflower-a shy, sapphire-eyed, blonde with alabaster skin and sweet pink lips. Janna Quinlin had yelled at her beau. "I won't be waiting " But she hadn't meant it. Dressed like a princess, the day of his return, heartbreak awaited her. A chance encounter with a handsome, honey-eyed desperado and the gift of a derringer changed her life forever. Janna had always been the timid one of the Quinlin sisters. But the gun slinger's untamed charisma had spoken to the secret places of her heart. Janna wanted marriage and children. She courageously embarks on a bold journey, but intrigue and danger seek to destroy her happiness He's a charmer-a global traveler, a connoisseur of languages and the arts, a perfectly formed aristocratic nose, amber eyes, and sensuous full lips. H. G. Sheffield undertakes the renovation of a prestigious hotel. With his dreams coming to fruition, and on the precipice of asking for a lady's hand in marriage-he is stunned by the turn of events. He's done with women, but jokingly suggests that his assistant find him a wife. Although, not happy at first, H. G. is captivated by his proxy bride, Janna Quinlin. But their relationship takes a dark turn when his past catches up with him. H. G uses everything at his disposal to court his wife-roses, and more roses, diamonds, the opera, and the ballet-to sweep her right off her size six feet. The intrigue of the past, H. G.'s toxic upbringing, and jealousy push Janna and H. G. apart. In a dance as old as time, they seek after the ultimate prize-a love worth fighting for-a happy ever after. But will the past destroy their chance at happiness?
