About “Brighter Than the Sun”

Charles Wycombe, the Earl of Billington, falls out of a tree and lands at Ellie Lyndon's feet in a meeting that leads to marriage: he must find a bride before his thirtieth birthday to keep his fortune, and she needs a husband to avoid her father's odious fiancée choosing one for her. Ellie tries to keep him at arm's length until she discovers the man beneath his rakish charm.
