Love's Revenge

All her life, Sophie's tried to earn her father's love to no avail. Even her one chance for happiness was crushed beneath his tyrannical thumb, leaving her firmly on the shelf at forty-one. Sophie accepts her fate until she impulsively uses her father's criminal activities to escape a life of servitude and right a wrong at the same time. She never really expected the Devil of Devlyn to actually accept her rash proposal, and she certainly hadn't planned on falling in love with a younger man. When Quentin Blackwell, Earl of Devlyn, discovered the woman he loved was carrying another man's child, he refused to marry her. In retaliation, her father ruined Devlyn. When Sophie Hamilton, the man's eldest daughter, comes to him with an unexpected offer, Devlyn seizes the chance for vengeance. What he doesn't bargain on is how revenge could cost him the one thing he wants the most. Sophie's love.
