   Orphaned at 16. Married at 17. Widowed at 18. Destitute—or dead—at 19?
  
  
  
   To avoid either fate Ria St. James has to thwart her deceased husband’s
  nephew who intends to marry or murder her—either will do! She also needs to
  evade the determined pursuit of the Earl of Arden and contend with well-
  meaning matchmakers. Clearly, Ria needs a plan. And if it fails she could lose
  her heart, her life, or both.
  
  
  
   The Earl of Arden enjoys the life of a rake and has a particular liking for
  widows as they understand the rules of engagement. But his flirtation with Ria
  St. James does not go to plan. He never expected to become captivated by the
  widow. Nor did he expect to discover her life was in danger. Clearly, she
  needs his protection. And if he fails he could lose her forever.
