The tempting of Thomas Carrick

1848. Thomas Carrick is a gentleman driven to control all aspects of his life. As the wealthy owner of Carrick Enterprises, located in bustling Glasgow, he is one of that city's most eligible bachelors and fully intends to select an appropriate wife from the many young ladies paraded before him. But no young lady captures his eye, much less his attention, the way Lucilla Cynster does.
