"Whatever my father is paying you to go through with this marriage, I can assure you, my lord, that you will not find it a bargain."
A rebellious bride and a double deception . . .
When Lord Marcus Northrup takes over the role of that legendary Regency Robin Hood, the Saint of Seven Dials, he looks forward to adding adventure and purpose to his otherwise dissipated and useless existence. But on his very first foray as the Saint, a good deed lands him in a compromising situation that leads to a completely unintended betrothal to a girl he's just met.
American shipping heiress Quinn Peverill has only come to England for the sake of the family business, at her father's insistence. When she disguises herself as a boy to help a servant girl in trouble, the last thing she expects is to end up engaged to a complete stranger! But her father, fearing scandal that could harm the business, refuses to let her cry off.
Forced into a marriage neither wanted, Quinn and Marcus attempt to make the best of it and soon discover a powerful attraction between them. But even as passion turns to love, both are hiding secret identities that could lead to arrest if discovered. If they can admit to their growing love and trust each other with the truth, it could lead to a lifetime of happiness—or to disaster.
Noble Deceptions was previously published as A Rebellious Bride by Avon Books.

Meet the Author
Brenda Hiatt began writing in 1988, an Army wife at home with two preschool children. She promised herself that if nothing sold before her youngest began school she'd get a "real job," so she was thrilled to sell a Regency romance novel to Harlequin six months ahead of that deadline. Originally from Virginia, Brenda received degrees in Biology and Psychology from the College of William and Mary, in Williamsburg, before attending graduate school at Texas A&M University. She has since lived in Hawaii, South Carolina, Texas, and now Indiana.
To date, Brenda has published six Harlequin Regency Romances, one Harlequin Superromance, two single title historical romances with HarperCollins and six historical romances with Avon Books. Brenda's first single title historical romance, SCANDALOUS VIRTUE, received rave reviews in Publisher's Weekly and other media and was named Best Romance Novel of 1999 by the American Book Readers Association. She prides herself on her thorough historical research, and when she takes a break from the past, Brenda embraces the future by teaching writing classes on the Internet.
An active member of Romance Writers of America since 1990, Brenda has also served as President of Novelists, Inc, an international organization of over 600 multi-published novelists.
