Wild Roses by Barbara Hazard (1998)

Wild Roses

Thorns of Love

To the young ladies of London, Jaspar Hayes must have seemed the perfect gentleman. But to Lucy Blake, he was a perfect horror. A cruel man from Lucy’s past, Hayes shadowed the lovely young widow at every turn, leaving strange notes, broken flowers, and dire warnings. Lucy, however, was determined to rise above Hayes’s sinister advances–and conceal her peril from the two handsome men who vied for her attentions, Gareth Powell and Bradford Grey.

But, oh, what a tangled web! Hayes had threatened to ruin Lady Blake–exposing a terrible secret guaranteed to shock the members of the ton, destroy her reputation, and drive away the one man who truly stirred her passion. At last, Lucy’s love would be put to the test. But could the man of her dreams conquer such a living nightmare? And could true love blossom…in a twisted garden of thorns?
