Dear Reader, Douglas Sherbrooke, Earl of Northcliffe, is a man besieged. He must have an heir. Thus he must first provide himself with the requisite bride.
Alexandra Chambers, youngest daughter of the Duke of Beresford, has loved Douglas Sherbrooke since she was fifteen. Unfortunately, it is her sister, the incomparable Melissande, he wishes to wed.
But life never ladles out what one expects, and Douglas finds himself wed to the wrong sister. If having an unwanted wife isn't enough, he is also plagued by The Virgin Bride, a ghost that is reputedly seen in the countess's bedchamber. Does the willowy phantom really appear to Douglas? Does she speak to him?
I hope you enjoy reading about the exploits of Alexandra and Douglas as much as I enjoyed writing them. You will see them again in The Hellion Bride.

Douglas Sherbrooke, the Earl of Northbrook, coolly and logically decides to marry, selecting Melissande, a beauty beyond compare, and sending his cousin Tony to marry her by proxy. But Tony returns actually married to Melissande--with Alexandra, a curvaceous red-head, in tow as Douglas's bride. Thus ensues the romance of Alex and Douglas as they sort through lust and cold, hard logic to arrive at, shall we say, love. Anne Flosnik seems to have a wonderful time with this romance, reading in staid, unemotional tones that fit Douglas's attitude about marriage. As hot-blooded Alex discovers lust that quickly turns to love, Flosnik's reading engages the listener right though to the luscious conclusion. M.B.K. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
