About this ebook

Leonie Saint-Andre, the granddaughter of an old Creole gentleman, thinks Morgan Slade is a scoundrel.

Morgan, the son of a wealthy Natchez plantation family, thinks Leonie is a clever liar.

Leonie claims Morgan married her, and fathered her five-year-old son. All she wants is her dowry returned to pay her dead grandfather's gambling debts and save their home.

Morgan knows that he accepted neither dowry, nor Leonie's hand in marriage. But the woman before him awakens emotions he never thought he'd feel again.

But that doesn't give reason for the imposter who signed his name to the marriage papers Leonie holds or why her son bears such a striking resemblance to Morgan himself.

Ratings and reviews

I really enjoyed the story. It made me smile at different times. It was a great book. The only thing I didn't like was the ending. I waited for the moment about the necklace and I was anxious to find out Leonie's reaction and I was really disappointed with it. But, I still think it was a really good story. Thank you!

Such a wonderful read it is so good to get lost in a story this great.hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Absolutely loved it! It would also make a very great movie!
