Scandal and rumor follow the young widow, Drusilla Lawford. Word has it she is a heartless fortune hunter. Lord Pensley is the one charged by her late husband's will with watching over her for the next five years and he means to hold a tight hand on the reins. Can she overcome his distrust of her and can he reform the young woman who, he believes, somehow lost her way? Note: This is a revised version-originally published as a Signet Traditional Regency in 1986.
