Adam Dagenham, Marquis of Daventry: He is a worldly, brooding rake who doesn't believe in love--until he looks into a certain flame-haired beauty's laughing green eyes. But when he rushes his cherished Sherry to the altar he marries a stranger--and would soon learn that even the truest love can be threatened by a single lie.... Charlotte "Sherry" Victor Dagenham: Achingly beautiful, she is the toast of London with every gentleman--save one. Her beloved husband, Adam, has turned away from her, and all because of a devil named Richard Brimley whose dangerous "game" almost disgraces her. Now Sherry desperately seeks a way to not only rekindle her husband's passion but build something new--a marriage based on trust as well as love.
