Adventurous Lady Emilyanne had no one but Viscount Stokely to turn to when her guardian tried to force her to marry his awful stepson. So the viscount married her while on leave and returned to his army unit. Which left Lady Em to attend to estate and ton matters pretty much as she saw fit--even if he didn't quite agree with her methods. Regency Romance by Barbara Metzger; originally published by Fawcett Crest
