Synopsis

Cathy Maxwell's popular romances deliver irresistible tales of forbidden desire between exalted people who refuse to be trapped by conventions. In A Scandalous Marriage, just as a beautiful debutante enters London society, dishonor drives her to the isolated countryside. While in hiding, Leah Carrollton encounters the dashing and noble Devon Marshall. They once felt a passionate spark for one another, and now it seems their feelings might rekindle. But the cruel truth is that they are from rival families. Leah's brother once challenged Devon to a duel, and there are rumors that her father is responsible for a terrible accident that killed Devon's father. Even all-consuming desire may not be enough to defy the bonds of blood. Narrator Virginia Leishman brings warmth and compassion to this scandalous tale as Leah and Devon fight to preserve their love.

To be fair i bought this series because of the stunning stepbacks and not for the storyline. This one involved a single mother who falls in love again with her first and only love and him accepting her baby as his.
