The Dangerous Gentleman

Following a tragic duel, Adrian Spence, the Earl of Albright, is rejected by the harsh father he has always sought to please. In retaliation, Adrian enters a whirlwind courtship and weds the woman sought after by his younger brother, Benedict, who is his father's favorite. It's a fateful choice, both for the earl and for his naive, high-spirited bride, Lilliana Dashell. Although passion blooms between them, Adrian seems incapable of expressing love, and the marriage soon hits rocky ground. Benedict does his best to come between the pair, and old secrets haunt Adrian as he charts a self-destructive course.
