Produktbeschreibung

Norma Ackroyd is the quintessential English country rose-pretty and rather innocent. But on the day her path crosses with that of the notorious womanizer from London, George Laxton, fate itself seemed determined to shatter her previously sheltered life. For Norma fell hopelessly in love with Laxton and chose to ignore or disbelieve all the bad things she heard about him-to the intense chagrin of her family. They knew that many of the stories were true and that Norma was courting almost certain disaster. But she was determined to let heart rule head, and who knows, maybe leopards can change their spots? This delightful story, which twists and turns like the vicissitudes of love itself, will appeal strongly to all readers of romantic fiction.
