Return to the regency countryside for a summer fling that will melt your heart in the brand-new novel in Heather Boyd's Saints and Sinners series.
Jaded by the experience of dodging fortune hunters during her first season, Lady Jessica Westfall returns home to the estate she loves expecting peace...until the biggest fortune hunter of all follows her from London. To keep Lord James at bay, Jessica enlists the aid of her neighbor, Gideon. As her lifelong friend, Giddy can be trusted to help thwart James' pursuit, while also satisfying Jessica's budding interest in things of an intimate nature...things like the kisses she'd missed out on during her season.
Gideon Whitfield's quiet bachelorhood is interrupted by the arrival of a marriage-minded widow to the nearby village, with her sights set on him as her savior. But the greater threat to his peace proves to be his dear friend's daughter, Lady Jessica Westfall. Gideon has always adored Jessica, and had expected the headstrong beauty to marry well in her first season. When she comes to him for help avoiding the unwanted advances of a fortune hunter, and also lessons in love--he may prove utterly incapable of helping her while guarding his own heart in the process.
