The search leads him to Philomena Lower, heiress and daughter of the scoundrel who cheated his family. By all rights, Mena is a woman he ought to despise; he certainly cannot trust her.A Woman Forced to Marry... Philomena wants nothing to do with aristocrats or fortune hunters, having been humiliated by the London dandies in her first, abbreviated Season. She must marry a stranger to protect her inheritance, and with her unerring bad luck, Philomena selects Solomon, a marquess with empty pockets. Too late, she learns Solomon's reasons for marrying her. Revising her earlier opinion that they would suit, Philomena must acknowledge she finds it difficult to trust Solomon, a man she ought to despise.
