About Man of My Dreams

(The first book in the Sherring Cross series) The most desirable beauty in the land, wildly unpredictable Megan Penworthy has set her amorous sights on Ambrose St James, Duke of Wrothston - a man she has never met but has every intention of marrying. No other suitor will satisfy her - especially not the common, if uncommonly handsome, horsebreeder, Devlln Jefferys. Posing as lowborn Jefferys to escape a potentially fatal confrontation, Ambrose is enthralled and infuriated by the brazen, duke-hunting redhead. Without revealing his true identity, the notorious rogue vows to foil Megan's plans to wed the man of her dreams - never imagining the enchanting schemer would turn out to be the only woman he would ever dream of marrying.
