About Magic from the Heart

It was a wicked scheme! The handsome Duke of Dallwyn was being blackmailed into marriage with a girl he had never even seen--a simpering debutante, no doubt! At least her money would be useful to repair the Duke's beloved ancestral estate, Wyn Park.... But Safina, daughter of the Earl of Sedgewick and the Duke's reluctant Bride, was a Providential surprise. Ingenious and angelically beautiful, Safina proved to be the astonished Duke's lucky charm. And Fortune was smiling on them both--showering the proud Duke and his shy Duchess with a tender, consuming passion more powerful than any wickedness .... For love, truly, conquers all!
