A Horseman for Harriet

Whoever marries Harriet Turner is going to be a very rich man. Lord Hargreaves believes his title is fair compensation for Harriet's fortune, even if he has to pay off Harriet's brother Russell's gambling debts in exchange for his help in securing the heiress. But Harriet does not want to marry Hargreaves. One night, her brother entraps her in a compromising situation with the earl, but his plan backfires when... Sir Henry Lovett, ex-cavalry, successful horse breeder and happy bachelor hears a woman scream and rides to the rescue, only to find that the man chasing her is her own brother. So why did she run? Against his better judgment, Henry finds himself drawn to this young woman whose talents and interests so eerily complement his own, while Harriet finds that there is after all one man in the world she can love unreservedly. Henry is about to propose marriage when he learns that she has been pressured into accepting Lord Hargreaves. Harriet comes to him with an unusual request, one moment of happiness before she is forced to marry the earl. Henry does not accept defeat. He knows Harriet loves him. He feels that Hargreaves is no good. He will stop at nothing to prevent this marriage. He turns to an old friend from Scotland who helps him discover what he needs to stop the wedding. Will Henry be in time?
