New York Times best-selling author, Catherine Coulter, has earned enduring popularity for drawing lush historical settings in her richly layered romances. Rewritten for the 90s, The Heir is a scintillating tale of a couple's love amidst treachery in early 19th century England. When the Earl of Strafford dies, he leaves startling instructions in his will that will force Justin, his distant nephew, and his headstrong daughter Arabella to marry. Their fiery union of convenience mires them in a web of deceit that threatens to destroy them and the love that is beginning to spark in their lives. With a masterful touch, Catherine Coulter creates heroes and heroines that burst from the page, filled with life, excitement, and emotion. Add Steven Crossley's stirring narration, and this moving tale becomes a breathtaking experience.
