  She has lost everything but her dignity...
  
  England, 1811. When John Merrick, the Earl of Corbeau, is caught in a locked
  storeroom with Lady Grace, he has but one choice—marry her. He cannot bear to
  tarnish any woman’s reputation, least of all Lady Grace’s.
  
  Lady Grace Landon will do anything to help her mother and sisters, crushed and
  impoverished by her father’s disgrace. But throwing herself into the arms of
  her dearest friend’s older brother to trap him in marriage? Never.
  
  Corbeau needs to prove that he loves her, despite her father’s misdeeds. After
  years of being an object of scorn, not even falling in love with Corbeau
  alters Lady Grace’s determination to not bring her disrepute upon another.
  However, if they don’t realize that the greatest honor is love given freely
  without regard to society’s censure, they stand to lose far more than they
  ever imagined.
