The first in a Regency trilogy about illegitimate brothers, this book's main characters are the eldest, Sir Alexander Jones, and Cleo Spencer, who's been living in poverty on a farm since her father's death. Their hasty marriage as virtual strangers gives them access to her inheritence, or so they think. Each has their own reasons to need her money, but her evil uncle tries to thwart their plans. This was a quick and pleasant read with an appealing hero, courageous heroine, and interesting secondary characters. I'm looking forward to the next in the series about the middle brother. 283 pages.
