Hero of My Heart
by Megan FramptonIn this emotional and powerfully sensual tale of love and redemption, a tender vicar's daughter and a tortured war hero discover that sin may be their only salvation. When Mary Smith's corrupt, debt-ridden brother drags her to a seedy pub to sell her virtue to the highest bidder, Alasdair Thornham leaps to the rescue. Of course the marquess is far from perfect husband material. Although he is exceedingly handsome, with a perfect, strong body, chiseled jaw, and piercing green eyes, Alasdair is also too fond of opium, preferring delirium to reality. Still, he has come to Mary's aid, and now she intends to return the favor. She will show him that he is not evil, just troubled. Mary was a damsel in need of a hero, but Alasdair's plan is shortsighted. He never foresaw her desire to save him from himself. Alasdair is quite at home in his private torment, until this angel proves that a heart still beats in his broken soul. The devil may have kept her from hell, but will Mary's good intentions lead them back to the brink--or to heaven in each other's arms?Praise for Hero of My Heart "It's a fabulous book."--New York Times bestselling author Sabrina Jeffries "I didn't want to stop reading!"--Amanda McCabe (aka Laurel McKee) "Megan Frampton's talent just sizzles off the page."--Award-winning author Andrea Pickens (aka Cara Elliott) "Mary and Alasdair's budding love affair and their internal conflicts with their sense of love versus duty make this romance a page-turner; recommended for most romance collections."--Library Journal "A wonderful, sweet, hot romance . . . Hero of My Heart was a different historical romance that I absolutely adored."--Imagine a World "Recommended for fans of unique story lines with personal struggles and a happily-ever-after that will make you smile."--Rogues Under the Covers "Hero of My Heart is definitely a historical romance with strong erotic entanglements."--Tome Tender "If you are looking for a quick read with a seriously flawed hero and a heroine in need of rescuing, I would suggest Hero of My Heart."--What I'm Reading "This is a suspenseful and romantic adventure of two lost souls who are destined to torture and love each other no matter what the outcome. I find Ms. Frampton's style very clean and refreshing, and her characters are playful as well serious."--The Eclectic Review Includes a special message from the editor, as well as excerpts from these Loveswept titles: Along Came Trouble, The Notorious Lady Anne, and Unforgettable.
