Blasts of wind and torrents of rain pelted a female figure in the distance. Suddenly, the river bank collapsed, tossing the woman and her horse into icy waters. Lord Randolph Symington threw open his coach door and dove in after her--soon overcome by the churning river, he discovered that only their combined efforts could save them from disaster.

Description:
A Brush with Passion
--
Clad in spectacles and plain dresses, Joanna Patterson would make no impression at all on Lord Sedgewick Wylie, if she didn't keep running into him ... literally.

The great arbiter of fashion for London society, Sedge had the reputation of caring more about the cut of his coat than the feelings of others... a fact made all too clear to Joanna by his reaction to her. Exasperated by her clumsiness, Sedge insulted her in public--but in private could not forget her shapely figure and the deep chocolate brown of her eyes....
--
A mere chaperone, Joanna is no match for society's crown prince. And though their minds and hearts have much in common, it will take a public scandal to bring them together--for better or worse....
