Publisher's Synopsis
Miss Dove Meriwether is the daughter of a vicar. Prim, proper, and devoted in her faith, she isn't prepared for the way her heart flutters when a viscount suddenly appears at the church asking for absolution. He's entirely too handsome-and rakish-for her own good. She doesn't have time to entertain him when she has other duties to her father's congregation. After the vicar falls ill, Dove is thrust into a role she never imagined she might play. But when it comes to matters of the heart, are the stakes too high?
Lord Cain Wyndham, Viscount Markel, feels that the only way he can get his sordid life back on track is to ask for divine intervention. But when an enchanting woman walks out of the church instead of the vicar he had been expecting, he forgets why he wants to change his wicked ways. As the holiday season draws near and he fights against his urges to claim Dove as his own, he realizes that redemption isn't the only thing he needs in his life. Can he convince her his love is genuine?
