About this ebook

At thirty, Aristide, Duc de Savigne is quite literally Lord of all he surveys – including the countless women who throw themselves at his feet, only to be trampled by his arrogance and disdain when he grows bored with them.

He may be the darling of Paris Society, but in the eyes of family friend, the Cardinal de Rochechant, his shocking behaviour is “defaming the name of Savigne and making it a byword for every outrage, scandal and vice”.

It's high time the Cardinal and the Duc’s mother decide that he is to be married, mends his ways and produces an heir to save the family fortune and legacy.

Duped into believing that his mother is dying, the Duc agrees to marry whoever the Cardinal finds for him. And, when the beautiful young innocent Syrilla instantly agrees to be bride to a man she has never met, the Cardinal is amazed.

Even when she finds herself bride to this embittered man, obsessed with his long-lost love for a murdered Chère amie, Syrilla adores her ‘White Knight’ with unstinting passion… Can it be that her pure unsullied love is the key that frees his long locked-in-heart?
