The Dark Horse

Miss Katherine le Chevalier buried the love of her life on February 14, 1816-the day they were meant to be married. After her fiancé's sudden and unexpected death, Katherine's prospects are grim. Her father's estate is failing, and with William's death, the financial burden again weighed heavily on her mind. Left with a broken heart and empty coffers, Katherine is forced out of mourning to find a man to marry as quickly as she can, with the banks breathing down her father's neck.
