Michael Tremayne, Marquess of Falconride, needs money and lots of it. So he does what any sensible Englishman with a title would do--he approaches the fathers of wealthy heiresses and auctions himself off! But this marriage of convenience is turning out to be anything but. Michael's new wife, Katherine Rose, decided a long time ago never to accept anything less than true love. And if she can't have that, her marriage will be strictly a business relationship. Michael finds the situation unacceptable, but at the same time finds himself admiring his wife's quick wit and determination. So he set about doing the one thing he never imagined--wooing his wife.
