Deceived

by Nicola Cornick

Princess Isabella Di Cassilis had come to Fleet Prison looking for a man. After her late husband left her with considerable outstanding debts and no money to pay them, Isabella finds she has three options: marriage, exile, or debtor's prison. In order to avoid a future behind bars, Isabella needs to find a man already in jail for debt, since after marrying Isabella all of her financial obligations would become his responsibility.
