Lady Julia Hazelton is the most dazzling among 1920s England’s bright, young things. The thrill of wanton adventure is dim in comparison to the honor of ushering the Worthington estate into a glittering modern new era. Having twice lost her prospects for a suitable marriage, she meets her wildest, most unexpected adventure in Cal Carstairs, the reluctant new Earl of Worthington.   Even as he teases her deepest desires, Cal threatens Julia’s every plan. Shunned by his English relatives, he grew up to become a rough American artist and has designed the ultimate revenge. Rather than see the estate prosper, he intends to destroy it. But their impulsive marriage—one that secures Julia’s plans as well as Cal’s secrets—proves that passion is ambition’s greatest rival. Unless Cal ends his quest to satisfy his darkest vendetta, he stands to ruin his Worthington wife and all her glittering dreams.
