Lord Something by Lorea Hartwell

Miss Celia Talbot—the penniless daughter of a disgraced village squire—once led a quiet, sheltered life of music lessons, morning calls and silk gowns. But now? She’s employed as a lady’s companion, trying desperately to stay two steps ahead of the merciless criminal her father crossed.
Charles Keynsham, Viscount Alford, was one of the ton’s most eligible bachelors. But now? With his father’s untimely death, scandals and debts are spilling out into the light, and it’s all he can do to keep the estate’s creditors—and his own despair—at bay.
A year ago, Keynsham and Celia shared a kiss that could have melted all the ices in a Mayfair ballroom. But then she vanished, and he’s begun to wonder if she was only a figment of his overheated imagination. So when their paths cross on a foggy London night, is it fate at work—or just a gangster with a vindictive streak? And now that Keynsham’s found Celia again…can he keep her?
