Temptation

Impulsive and eccentric Harriet Pomeroy loved nothing more than hunting for ancient fossils in seaside caves. Suddenly, she discovered with horror that her favorite "hunting grounds" were being used as a hideout by a dangerous gang of bandits! A fragile girl like her could never handle these scoundrels on her own; she needed a protector like the devil himself... someone like Gideon Westbrook, Viscount St. Justin, whose face was scarred and whose name was surrounded by the darkest rumors, gossip, and legends in the county. This man would certainly not be afraid to confront the bandits... if, of course, Harriet could convince him to help her. And so begins one of Amanda Quick's most delightful novels - a charming love story of the most unlikely couple imaginable and their thrilling, captivating, and amusing adventures.
