Scarlet Secrets

Spirited young Vivian Lesley and her arrogant guardian, Lord Gilbert Seymour, were equally shocked to learn of each other's secret lives. Lord Gilbert could not condone his well-brought-up young ward's writing lurid novels under another name. And Vivian was enraged at learning that this man who so sternly rebuked her slightest impropriety was actually one of Regency London's most notorious rakes. Vivian vowed that Lord Gilbert would see himself mirrored as the villain in her next romance. Lord Gilbert threatened to turn Vivian and her sisters out of his manor house if she dared write another line. Thus the battle between this strong-willed, hot-tempered pair was joined -- with neither suspecting the other's most jealously guarded secret of all: the love that was blossoming deep in their secret hearts.
