Description

Wild and free, intending to remain so, Kerrie Johnstone has one goal in mind. She intends to build a stable with the best race horses in the British Isles. Life is good for Kerrie. Beautiful, self-assured and fiercely independent, she understands she is no debutant even though she is headed for a season in London. One she will loathe. She is prepared to step into her dreams, not become some aristocrat's wife. If she never meets another man with a title, she will be more than satisfied.

Life is good for Sterling Talmage, the future Duke of Sherburn. Known to his friends as Tam, he is wealthy, handsome and happily unencumbered…until stunning Kerrie Johnstone plumets into his life racing across an open field on a stallion much too large for her petite frame. After pulling the damsel in distress from the stallion, he discovers a wild, struggling termagant who refuses to admit she needs his help.

During their impromptu stay in a hunting box in the wilds of Scotland, Tam learns the woman he's decided will be his wife despises men with titles. During the next weeks he does all he can to keep her from discovering he is not only a marquis but in line to become the next duke. This young beauty might have some strange notions about men with titles, but she is about to discover that when it comes to passion, a loving heart wins hands down.
