The Earl's Passionate Plot

by Susan Gee Heino

Falling in love was never part of the plan... When Miss Mariah Langley inherited beautiful Renford Hall she planned to stay there forever. Now the Earl of Dovington has shown up to evict her! He's waving legal proof that the property is his and he's arranged to lease it to an eligible heiress. With nowhere to go, Mariah agrees to host his potential lessees in exchange for additional time there. With guests arriving and tempers flaring, there seems but one obvious solution. The spinster and the earl engage in a battle of wits and they each scheme to find a partner for the other, hoping romance will give the enemy reason to relinquish the house. It's hard to focus on matchmaking, however, when they can't keep their hands off each other!
