Arriving in Brighton, Cassandra Paxton had one important task - to uncover the meaning of a letter she'd found amidst her late brother's belongings. She knew of only one man who could help her: Lord Deverill, who just happened to be the most eligible bachelor in all of Brighton.
But what she didn't realize - until it was too late - was that the handsome earl had a secret of his own. One that might prevent him from telling her the truth - and one that made a marriage between them impossible. Which was most unfortunate, considering the way his gentle touch made Cassandra's pulse quicken.
