'''The perplexing Proposal'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Earl of Severn's question was simple enough. Would Miss Abigail Gardiner agree to become his wife?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But a far more difficult question was why the most handsome and wealthy lord in London, with a ravishing mistress and his pick of the marriage mart, would want to wed a Miss Nobody like her. A Miss Nobody, to boot, who harbored a secret that could cover her with shame and fill a husband with horror.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was but one way for Abigail to find out what lay behind the Earl's proposal and what danger her dark past might pose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For better or worse, she had to say yes.&lt;br /&gt;
