The Hostage Bride

Janet Dailey

In the first novel of the Brides trilogy, in which three unconventional young women vow they will never marry--only to be overtaken by destiny--outspoken Portia finds forever love.

It's bad enough that seventeen-year-old Portia Worth is taken in by her uncle, the marquis of Granville, after her father dies. As the bastard niece, Portia knows she can expect little beyond a roof over her head and a place at the table. But it truly adds insult to injury when the Granvilles' archenemy, the outlaw Rufus Decatur, hatches a scheme to abduct the marquis's daughter--only to kidnap Portia by accident.
