FAINT OF HEART NEED NOT APPLY Chloe may be the woman Hamilton wants, but there's one problem- she's far more interested in publishing her women's journal than getting married-especially to a man said to be dead-set on vengeance. Though, with her nose for a story, Chloe wonders if his desire for justice is sincere-along with his incredibly unnerving intention to be her husband.
