From a magnificent ballroom ablaze with lights to an
imposing country house steeped in shadows comes a
breathtaking tale of an impetuous miss—and a passion that
leads to peril... At five and twenty, Prudence
Merryweather knew very well the risks a woman took by
visiting a gentleman in the dead of night. But bearding the
notorious Earl of Angelstone in his den was the only way to
stop him from engaging her hot-headed brother in a duel.
And that was why she found herself ushered into Sebastian's
forbidding presence at three in the morning—and thoroughly
kissed before dawn. She was a country-bred innocent—and an
intriguing experience for a man who dwelt more in the
shadows than in the sunshine. Yet as her boldness drew Prue
into one dangerous episode after another, Sebastian found
himself torn between a raging hunger to possess her and a
driving need to protect her. And the reckless beauty would
soon need all lthe protection she could get...
