About A Duel of Hearts
Could she set free from the secret that threatened their love? They were strangers, meeting by destiny in a lonely, moonlit wood. Because of an indiscretion, Lady Caroline Faye finds herself in a moonlit glade beside the body of a dead man, and his murderer. Rescued by Lord Vane Brecon, she conceals her true identity, but secretly swears to repay him. Returned to her glittering world of balls and adoring suitors, Lady Caroline remembered only the despairing eyes of the nobly handsome man who called himself Lord Brecon. And later, when she found he was in danger of his life, she left the glamorous whirl of an heiress to find the one man who haunted her dreams. But when Lady Caroline tried to warn him, she was shocked to find how little he cared to live. Only when Brecon's enemy appeared and forced them to take desperate measures did she learn of a sinister secret and the true reason for his despair....
