So Reckless A Love

Description for SO RECKLESS A LOVE by Eileen Winwood: 

His detached demeanor helped to hide his deepest feelings -- and keep matchmakers at bay. Now, as the Duke of Claremont, Gideon Traherne is even more vulnerable to society's marriage-minded ladies -- and more intent on refusing them. For this handsome nobleman is already wed -- though in no one's eyes but his own -- to a frail orphan who begged his help and then fell ill.

Gwynna Owen's fierce, uncompromising spirit -- typical of her heritage as a Welsh islander -- led her to disguise herself as a boy and set off in search of the Duke of Claremont ... hoping to unravel the tangled secrets of her own past.

But forced to admit their deceptions and confront their desires, the tormented nobleman and the rebellious beauty were surprised to find themselves trapped -- by so fierce a passion, so tender a devotion...SO RECKLESS A LOVE.
