A well-practiced rake, weary of easy conquests and empty
pleasures, Tarquin Vale, Earl of Ashcroft, knows women - and
his every instinct warns him to beware of this
one.
Diana Carrick’s brazen overtures have thrown the haunted,
sinfully handsome lord completely off his guard. Why, the
exquisite temptress stated outright that she wishes to be
his lover! But it is neither Diana’s boldness nor her beauty
that intrigues him so - it is the innocence he senses behind
her worldly mask.
Intent upon the seduction that will finally free her, Diana
has set her sights on the notorious Ashcroft - never
dreaming that there is much more to the enigmatic rogue than
sin and deviltry. His kiss is bewitching, his caress
intoxicating - and even the dangerous secret Diana must
protect cannot shield her from Ashcroft’s dark allure.
Unwittingly yet most willingly, they are playing with
fire. Now the fuse has been lit and there is no
escape…except surrender.
