Publisher's Synopsis
Emerald Carlisle's father will do anything to stop a wedding between her and her penniless friend Kit Fairfax. Announcing their engagement seems a sure-fire way of helping Kit raise some cash! Tom Brodie is her father's lawyer. His duty, to buy off the groom and to bring Emerald to heel, is thwarted by Emerald's beauty and charm. When she persuades him to help her 'elope', Tom soon realises she could persuade him to take her anywhere...even up the aisle!
