Heir to an impressive title and
fortune, Lord William Townshend, Earl of Harclay, is among
the most disreputable rakes in England. Desperately bored by
dull heiresses and tedious soirees, he seeks new
excitement—with a dangerous scheme to steal the world’s most
legendary gemstone from its owner, Thomas Hope. To his
surprise, however, it’s not the robbery that sets his blood
burning but the alluring lady from whom he pilfers the gem.
A string of bad luck has left the fate of Lady Violet
Rutledge’s estate entirely in Hope’s scheming hands. So when
his prized jewel disappears from around her neck, she has no
choice but to track down the villain responsible for the
theft. Only Harclay has his sights set on taking more from
her than the necklace—and she’s tempted to surrender
anything he desires…
Now, caught in a thrilling game of secrecy and seduction,
Violet must find a way to protect her fortune—and her
heart—before she loses both forever…
