Publisher's Synopsis
Anna feels little anguish when she sees the dead body of her husband. The young widow has no plans to mourn over the cruel Duke of Watkins, but she knows that his untimely death will put her at the mercy of his malicious younger brother. With help from her loyal butler, Anna smuggles away the body in the dead of night.
Anna hopes to keep her husband's death a secret until she's settled far from the reach of her spiteful brother-in-law. When she stumbles upon a wounded man who bears an uncanny resemblance to her husband and has forgotten his memory, she wonders if she's found the solution to all their problems. She quickly convinces him he is her husband.
To her surprise, he's so much better than the gentleman she buried. After years in a cold marriage, she is vulnerable to his tender words and sweet touches. But her husband's younger brother is still on the prowl, and giving into her feelings could possibly doom them both.
