About the book

To Leona, Konnon Wyndham was no different than any other man--at first. Proud and arrogant, Leona despised all men. Not until Kon beat her in a yacht race did he come in for her special treatment. Only, unlike the other men she'd known, he just wouldn't be brushed off. Leona had been brought up in comfort bordering on luxury, in the stately surroundings of Greatmoor Hall in Derbyshire with her grandmother, and she was as a result rather a proud person, somewhat conscious of her position. So it came as a terrible shock when she learned that the Hall did not in fact really belong to her family and that the real owner, the forbidding Kon, was shortly coming to claim it. Leona had never been disposed to like Konon, and it was almost more than she could bear when he made it clear that he certainly intended to take possession - adding that he also intended to 'grind her pride in the dust'. She had to admit he had the power - would he really use it to humble her?
