He's a rogue! Not a curate! The third son of a marquess and a little bit lost--well, not so much lost as good at finding trouble! The problem is--he doesn't have purpose, and his two older brothers do.
So, finding himself at a loss in London, he's soon managed to get into fight or two, then there's the occasional duel...
But his father is having none of it. So he orders him to spend a year with his Reverend uncle and mend his ways--as a temporary curate.
Already bored with his lifestyle, Aiden agrees, well, he doesn't actually agree, but he doesn't fight it!
It's not his father's threat to cut him off without a penny that worries Aiden, as unbeknownst to his father, he has amassed a fortune at the gaming tables, its being cut off from his family that he doesn't want to see happen, and he actually likes his Reverend uncle.
His year in Harelton is almost over, when Miss Amelie Rouen, opera singer, rides into his life.
She's beautiful, independent, unusual and playful...and just what he needs.
