While Jackson MacIntyre was lying in his bed, delirious from fever, his younger brother, Lucas, was busy conspiring against him.

Sure, he understands why Lucas did such an underhanded thing—their uncle left them in quite a bind—but he refuses to be married again…and no inheritance is enough to change his mind on the matter.
