The landlord's black-eyed daughter

Elizabeth Wyndham is a rarity- a young lady who writes novels- bestsellers in fact. But with her sharp tongue and quick temper, she's nothing like her vapid, charming heroines. Band Remington is an ex-soldier disillusioned with England's less-than-honorable nobility. By day a gentleman, by night he robs the rich to try to make life better for the poor. Rand and Elizabeth are drawn inexorably together, until the fateful night when the men trying to capture Rand use Elizabeth as living bait.--From back cover.
