From the author of the beloved romance classic The Windflower comes a novel about a reckless girl, a notorious rake, and the rollicking scandal that brings them together-for better or worse. Known as the "naughtier twin" of Downpatrick Hall, Miss Lynden is far more brash and adventurous than her sister Lorraine.
