title: Marriage Plot
author: Kirch, Kelly
description: Leaving his foreign mission is in direct violation of Lord Nicolas Bromley's orders and punishable by hanging. Letting his family take the fall for treason, though, isn't an option. His family believes Nicolas has been away on holiday for the past year. They have no reason to suspect he is a secret operative for the Crown. Lady Caroline has been in love with Nicolas for eight years. She is determined to catch Nicolas' notice and win a proposal of marriage while she visits with his sister. Her wide golden eyes, soft curves, and stolen kisses send Nicolas reeling into awareness. But Caroline's presence in his family home is a complication to his goal. She is everywhere he turns-a distraction he cannot resist. When they are forced to marry, Nicolas must choose between Caroline and his mission, but in claiming the woman he loves, will he lose her forever when the truth is revealed and the Crown's guard comes to call?
