jacquie (United Kingdom) (2010/09/10): Diana Carlyle is shocked and dismayed to discover that her beloved late uncle's will demands that she marry his heir, or else she and her mother will have to try and get by on a pittance of a stipend. Her sense of independence makes her dig her heels in against the union, but she soon finds herself relenting when she discovers that life with Gavin would not be as unpleasant as she'd thought. And when her uncle's death seems less like an accident than previously thought the security of marrying Gavin is too much for Diana to pass up, so she accepts his proposal and settles in for a lifelong marriage of convenience.
But Gavin has other ideas about what their marriage ought to be like and sets out to make his wife love him. But first he must capture the fiend who caused her uncle's demise - a killer who will surely strike again.
