Earl of Alnwick

Description

She's a runaway bride. He's a fortune-hunting earl determined to claim the fat reward for her safe return. But will love claim him instead? Niall has more than lived up to his reputation as one of the Wicked Earls. But it is time to settle down and marry an heiress to save the crumbling and heavily burdened estate he inherited from his wastrel father. Not that he wishes to marry. He rather enjoys his own wastrel life. He finds the perfect solution when he rescues one hugely irritating spitfire by the name of Miss Katie Pringle from drowning. She has run off on the morning of her wedding day. Her wealthy father and even wealthier betrothed are offering an extremely generous reward for her safe return. All Niall has to do is get her back to London and claim his riches. What can possibly go wrong? Well...everything now that Niall has fallen in love with Katie.
