Most women will give him anything he wants. She is
not most women…
As a well-known barrister and the son of a duke, Ives
confines his passionate impulses to discreet affairs with
worldly mistresses. A twist of fate, however, has him
looking for a new lover right when a fascinating woman shows
up in his chambers, asking him to help save her father from
the gallows. Unfortunately, he has already been asked to
serve as the prosecutor in the case, but that only ensures
close encounters with the rarity named Padua Belvoir. And
every encounter increases his desire to tutor her in
pleasure’s wicked ways...
Having always been too tall, too willful, and too smart to
appeal to men, Padua Belvoir is shocked when Ives shows
interest in her. Knowing his penchant for helping the
wrongly accused, she had initially thought he might be her
father’s best hope for salvation. Instead, he is her worst
adversary—not least because every time he looks at her, she
is tempted to give him anything he wants…
