Catherine Blair
A Notorious Lady

Once Cambridge astronomy professor John Caldwell's only passion was for the pursuit of knowledge. Then he met a woman more intriguing than the most radiant star. Lady Eleanor Whitcombe, with her quiet reserve and mysterious air of sadness, is nothing like the frivolous, feather-brained society misses he's done his best to avoid. But the strait-laced professor is in for a shock. For Lady Eleanor has a dark past - one that could cloud the bright future he's contemplating.

Sir Edward wanted Varia to accompany his only son, Ian, on a business trip to France, posing as his fiancee. The agreement was strictly business, of course, and she'd be paid handsomely for her help.

But she swiftly learned that acting can be dangerous when her heart made her long to play a real-life fiancee to the man who had stolen her love....

Emily Dickinson's tightly compressed poems have astounded readers since they were first published a few years after her death. They deal with typical poetic subjects - nature, death, love, religion - but their utter individuality owes little to any earlier poet. Lacking poetic ancestors or heirs, Dickinson remains, in all ways, unique.
