The prodigal's return At seventeen, Miranda Braxton shocked the world by eloping with her brother's tutor. Now, a wiser and widowed lady, she returns to Carnwood - and finds herself engaged in a battle of wits with the new Earl. Kit Alstone, Earl of Carnwood, grew up on the streets. His gentlemanly demeanour conceals an adventurer's heart. Miranda's bravery and beauty would tempt a saint - and Kit is far from that. Soon, Kit begins to wonder if a scandalous lord might ask for nothing better than a less than perfect Countess!
