The Stranger I Married

The Stranger I Married - the classic erotic romance - by Sylvia Day - author of the sensational international bestselling Bared to You, first book in the Crossfire series - is a tale of love and awakened desire in Victorian England.

They are London's most scandalous couple. Isabel, Lady Pelham, and Gerard Faulkner, Marquess of Grayson, are well matched in all things - lusty appetites, constant paramours, provocative reputations, and their absolute refusal to ruin a marriage of convenience by falling in love. It is a most agreeable sham - until a shocking event sends Gerard from her side. When, four years later, Gerard returns, the boyish rogue is now a powerful, irresistible man determined to seduce Isabel. He is not the man she married - but is he the one to finally steal her heart?

Sylvia Day is the New York Times bestselling author of over a dozen novels in multiple genres - contemporary, fantasy, historical, science fiction, romantic suspense, paranormal romance, and urban fantasy. A wife and mother of two, she is a former Russian linguist for the U.S. Army Military Intelligence. Find out more about Sylvia on her website.
