Intrepid and outspoken, Blythe Culpepper is dragged
against her will to London for a Season. To her dismay,
her guardian enlists the devilishly attractive Lord
Leventhorpe, the one man she detests, to assist with her
Come Out. Since their first encounter, hostile looks and
cutting retorts have abounded whenever they meet, yet she
cannot deny the way her body reacts when he’s near. So
perhaps it’s no surprise that upon overhearing another
woman scheming to entrap Tristan into marriage, Blythe
risks all to warn him.
Haunted by childhood trauma, Tristan, the austere and
controlled Marquis of Leventhorpe, usually avoids social
gatherings. So why, against his better judgement, does he
agree to aid his closet friend in presenting the
Culpeppers to the ton? Might it be because one Culpepper
stirs more than his interest? Blythe taxes him to his
limits with her sharp wit and even sharper tongue. Yet,
he cannot deny the beauty fascinates him. However, when
an old enemy comes calling, using Blythe to settle old
scores, Tristan must decide if protecting his honor is
more important than winning the heart of the woman he has
come to love.
