Lady Anne's Deception

by M. C. Beaton

Overview

Political intrigue rocks an unsteady marriage in this Regency romance by the New York Times–bestselling author of the Hamish Macbeth mysteries.

When Lady Anne Sinclair vowed to marry anyone as long as it meant she married before her spoilt beauty of a sister, she had no idea the “anyone” would be the Marquess of Torrance. Long the darling of the ton—and considered quite the confirmed bachelor—he succumbed to Annie’s charms and, most magically, made her his wife. 

But Annie’s lifelong battle for attention had ill-prepared her for married life. In a tipsy revery on her wedding night, she blurted out her real reason for marrying the Marquess—and her husband’s formidable pride shut the door on any further communication. Only a crisis of major proportions could bring the headstrong newlyweds together. And no less than the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with sinister political ambitions known only to himself, embroiled Annie in a dangerous plot that taught her the truth about her wifely sentiments.
