Privileged and immensely eligible until a carriage accident hurls him to the cobbled street, an earl awakens as Lord Anguish. Could it get any worse? Of all the ladies in London, why does this one tickle his fancy? Lord John Angsley can't stay away from Miss Blackwood, the jammiest bit of jam. But it's clear from the start she's too flighty and fickle to make him a good wife, especially with rival suitors cropping up at every turn. What's wrong with wanting to kiss a few handsome men? Margaret Blackwood knows the earl has dash-fire to spare. She's decided he's the man for her, if only a few minor matters don't get in her way - like his two casts, a half-missing eyebrow, and a practically perfect "other" woman. Opium dependency and a web of lies . . . When Maggie discovers the true insidious rival for the earl's affections, she may have to concede defeat and return to the ballrooms of Mayfair and her many admirers. Will Lord Anguish choose the blissful relief of laudanum or the unpredictable passion of the dazzling Miss Blackwood? Engaging characters, attention to period detail, and passionate romance with a touch of intrigue - you'll find it all in the stories by USA Today bestselling author Sydney Jane Baily.
