Dear Reader, <\/p>\n

Here is the first of my new “Brides” trilogy, in which three unconventional young women vow they will never marry — only to be overtaken by destiny. Bride #1 is the outspoken Portia … <\/p>\n

Its bad enough that seventeen-year-old Portia Worth is taken in by her uncle, the marquis of Granville, after her father dies. As the bastard niece, Portia knows she can expect little beyond a roof over her head and a place at the table. <\/p>\n

But it truly adds insult to injury when the Granvilles archenemy, the outlaw Rufus Decatur, hatches a scheme to abduct the marquiss daughter — only to kidnap Portia by accident. <\/p>\n

Portia, who possesses more than a streak of independence as well as a talent for resistance, does not take kindly to being abducted — mistakenly or otherwise. <\/p>\n

Decatur will soon find himself facing the challenge of his life, both on the battlefield and in the bedroom, as he contends with this misfit of a girl who has the audacity to believe herself the equal of any man … <\/p>\n

Warmest wishes, <\/p>\n
