Beautiful Collector's Edition Trade Paperback Can love's tender spell melt the icy heart of a duke? Jourdian Amberville, the Duke of Heathcourte, is looking for the perfect bride. A practical and staid companion who will fit into his perfectly ordered life and never tempt him to fall in love. What he is not looking for is a violet-eyed sprite who tumbles right out of the sky to knock him off his horse. Jourdian doesn't know that Splendor is an actual fairy princess seeking the human mate she is destined to love. After they are forced to wed to avert a scandal, Jourdian realizes his new wife is no ordinary duchess, but a tender-hearted temptress who talks to animals and weeps diamond teardrops. The delightful chaos the mischievous beauty brings to his life threatens to make him lose not only his temper...but his heart. If Jourdian is to keep Splendor, he must learn to surrender that heart to the strongest, most dangerous magic of all-the magic of true love.
