Everything But the Earl

Not quite a marriage of convenience... When Grace Midwood finds her betrothed kissing another, she doesn't know what to do. Her parents want her married off this Season, but obviously that match is out of the question. But where will she find a husband? Owen Thomas, the Earl of Caernarfon and a Welshman who spends most of his time in London, has no interest in marriage. But Grace catches his eye at a ball and before he knows it, she's compromised and he's proposing marriage. Not that he minds. Grace is smart, witty and very beautiful. After a hasty marriage, he sends her to live at his estate in Wales, a place Grace is greatly looking forward to exploring. Each thinks their marriage is the perfect solution to their dilemma. Grace gets to live her life as she pleases and Owen can return to London and fulfill his duties in Parliament. Then something strange happens-they start to miss each other. Owen and Grace keep up a steady correspondence while they are separated, and through these letters, they finally get to know each other. In fact, getting a letter from Grace soon becomes the highlight of his week. Is he falling for her after all? But suddenly, the letters stop. And after three weeks, Owen becomes worried. But it enough to make him go to Wales to finally claim his bride?
