Conquered by the Commander by Pippa Greathouse and Ruby Caine
The Conquered - Book Two
Lillianna Collingwood is beautiful and graceful, but she is every bit as hot-headed as her hair is red. When she decides to marry Earl, the commander of the Arabella, she is completely unaware that his name is not really “Earl” at all. He is Lord Darby, the son of the Earl of Darbyshire. Elated at first, she soon realizes she now has to learn to act the part of a lady. Having grown up in a convent orphanage from the time she was five, she learned to be wild. She excels in cheating at cards and considers stealth one of her best virtues. A lady? She’s not sure she can do it.
Darby has a reason he hasn’t told her who he is. She’s entirely too concerned with titles, money and possessions. He’s not only determined to teach her those things are not as important as character, but also that her hot-headed behavior is not acceptable.
Lily tries, but she isn’t prepared when the past seems to come back to haunt her. Her past, her nightmares – everything seems to be against her when she arrives. Even Darby’s own mother refuses to accept her into the family, making her feel like an outcast. Darby remains her rock, her anchor, but Lily is unable to make herself confide in him about the terrors that plague her night after night.
And Darby fears he is losing her. Can he save her before it’s too late?
