A Viking of One's Own

Gabrielle Devereux has always hidden in her brother Julius’s long shadow, for reasons she keeps quietly to herself. But can she maintain invisibility during her inaugural season while her powerful aunt is simultaneously thrusting her into the spotlight? Gabrielle thinks she is a match for her aunt—but not Eric Langdon—the cynical, handsome war hero who also happens to be her brother’s best friend. Eric Langdon has returned from war with secrets of his own. He is far too jaded to think of Gabrielle as anything but his brother’s much younger sister, a young debutante in need of protection. But secrets have a way of drawing two souls together, especially when those two souls share the greatest secret of all.
