Years ago, Mallory Edwards was forced to wed John Barron--who then abandoned her on their wedding night. Now being courted by a local squire, Mallory travels to London to petition John for a divorce. When she discovers he is bankrupt and that she also could be imprisoned for his debts, the couple flees London in pursuit of John's embezzling business agent. During their misadventures, Mallory tries not to succumb to her husband's roguish charm, while John fights his attraction to his wife. n nHell hath no fury like a bride scorned!n nn nHighborn country heiress Mallory Edwards was dutifully fulfilling family obligations when she exchanged marriage vows with a dashing gentleman she barely knew. But the charming beast abandoned her on their wedding night. Years later--facing prison because of her husband's debts--she has finally found the blackguard, John Barron, again. And she's not leaving until the faithless rogue grants her a divorce!n nn nJohn is enchanted by this delightful hellion who causes a scene at his London soirée. Could this be the forgotten rural miss whom his father once forced him to wed?
