The Selfless Sister

Lucinda Linley has seen five of her six sisters marry. She always stepped aside as the younger girls made their matches, refusing her own suitors for the good of her siblings. Now, with her father's money spent on too many dowries, she knows a suitable match is unlikely.
When she meets Douglas Wyndham - the outcast lord of Ravensbrook - she finds her heart leaping with excitement. And Douglas can hardly contain himself in the presence of this woman who shines brighter than the most refined of London's ladies.
But the mystery of a missing little girl divides the two families. A twenty-five-year-old tragedy that's never been solved has hung like a dark cloud over Douglas's entire life. And so, after all the sacrifices she made for her sisters, Lucinda must fight for her own greatest passion. Against all odds, can she, herself, solve the mystery? If she can, she will heal the rift between two rival families, and clear the way for a lifetime of happiness with the man she loves.
