Love's Revenge

All her life, Sophie's tried to earn her father's love to no avail. Even her one chance for happiness was crushed beneath her father's tyrannical thumb when he convinced Sophie's only suitor to marry her youngest sister who'd gotten in a family way with the stable boy. Firmly on the shelf at forty-one, Sophie has grown accustomed to her fate as a spinster until she does something bold and daring. She never really expected the Devil of Devlyn to actually accept her rash proposal, and she certainly hadn't planned on falling in love with a younger man.
Quentin Blackwell, Earl of Devlyn, refused to marry a woman carrying another man's child. The price he paid for spurning the promiscuous youngest daughter of Baron Townsend was his fortune. Now, the baron's oldest daughter has come to him with an unexpected proposition. Devlyn seizes the chance for vengeance without hesitation. But the one thing Quentin never bargained on was how revenge could cost him the one thing he wants the most.
Sophie's love. A strong, independent, older heroine pitted against a hero who is as sexy, mature, powerful, and alpha as they come.
