| Plot Summary of A Notorious Love |
"Helena Laverick is at her wits end and the only man who can help find her eloping young sister is Daniel Brennan, a man who played with her emotions last year and then left. Soon, Helena is forced to go after her sister with Daniel, but finds herself beginning to warm to the man instead. Daniel finds most of the prim and proper lovely's rules ridiculous — but when she insists on masquerading as his wife for the sake of appearances, he immediately envisions the delights of sharing a bedchamber. The unexpected smoldering beneath her straitlaced exterior ignites his desire, and die vulnerability hidden beneath her cool control makes him want her even more. Yet Helena's a lady, and he's the son of a highwayman. How can he ever ask her to share his world?
