Abstract: Fortune Hunters--that's who flocked to court her! But Miss Diana Landale, unhappy heiress to an estate of near-gargantuan proportions, would have none of her suitor's sordid folderol: she would marry for love and love alone. But the elegant Lord Alexander will not be dissuaded, and Diana may be forced into this most mercenary match. With desperate daring, she schemes to elope with a passionate French lover. So what if her fabulous fortune is forfeit? Yet her plot is foiled: her Frenchman turns tail, and only marriage to Alexander will quash the scandal. Now she's matched to a man who sees past her disguises, and the matrimonial gleam in his eyes becomes most unmercenary....
