Vindicated by
a Viscount
(The Beresford Adventures, Book 5)
As Georgiana Beresford begins to unravel a sinister plot, it may be
too late to save her—and the honorable man who’s offered her
marriage.
While walking down a London street, Miss Georgiana Beresford nearly
has apoplexy when she catches a glimpse of a woman she thought was
dead. She whips around—which results in her falling into the muddy
street and injuring herself. To her mortification, an exceedingly
handsome man whisks her into his arms and insists on carrying her
home.
Charles, Viscount Churston, had not been able to remove his eyes
from the beautiful woman he was only too happy to assist. He
delivers her home and learns she’s a Beresford, the sister of an
Eton friend. When he calls to check on her the next day, Charles
learns that his misguided act of chivalry has ruined her name. A
malicious attack upon her has appeared in that morning’s London
Gazette. There’s only one honorable thing to do. He must offer
her marriage. It’s a proposal that is heartily approved of by the
lady’s family.
Georgiana cannot deny her attraction to the handsome Lord Churston
but laments that he’s only offering for her out of his sense of
honor. Once they’re joined together in a loveless marriage, he
assists his bride, who’s obsessed with learning the identity of the
woman who looks exactly like one who perished in a fire. The closer
they get to finding out who the mysterious woman is, the more peril
they face—and the closer the two become . . . in every way.
