Romance Historical
Step into a world of scandal, intrigue, and enthralling
passion as New York Times bestselling author Mary
Balogh sweeps us into the lives of an extraordinary family:
the Huxtables.
Margaret, the eldest, embarks on the most risqué adventure
of her life and agrees to marry the most notorious man in
London.…
Only desperation could bring Duncan Pennethorne, the
infamous Earl of Sheringford, back home after the
spectacular scandal that had shocked even the jaded ton.
Forced to wed in fifteen days or be cut off without a penny,
Duncan chooses the one woman in London in frantic need of a
husband.
A lie to an old flame forces Margaret Huxtable to accept the
irresistible stranger’s offer. But once she discovers who he
really is, it’s too late—she’s already betrothed to the
wickedly sensual rakehell. Quickly she issues an ultimatum:
If Duncan wants her, he must woo her. And as passion slowly
ignites, two people marrying for all the wrong reasons are
discovering the joys of seduction—and awaiting the exquisite
pleasure of what comes after….
