When a loathsome rake steals one of her most cherished
family heirlooms—and nearly her virtue as well!—Francesca
Dunroy devises the perfect plan to put him in his place. At
a ball being held in her honor—she didn't "take" in her
first season, now her family is determined to get her a
match in her second—she'll offer him a clandestine kiss
sure to convince him to return what is rightfully hers. But
in the dark hallways surrounding the ballroom, Francesca
makes a terrifying mistake. She seduces the wrong man!
The recipient of Francesca's caresses is none other than
Justin Maddox, London's newly titled duke and most eligible
bachelor. A defiant Scotsman who disdains London society,
he's sworn to steer clear of the ladies of the ton, but he
can't escape the memory of Francesca urgently pressing her
lips upon his . . . and neither can she. But when a
shocking and dangerous secret from Justin's past
resurfaces, the couple will have to risk tattered
reputations and treacherous enemies to nurture what has
quickly become true love.
