Returning to the "wickedly witty, lusciously sensual"
(Booklist) world of her beloved Malory family, #1 New
York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey sweeps
readers away on a seductive adventure in which a detested
marriage contract turns childhood enemies into passionate
lovers.
Nine years ago, Richard Allen fled
England and his controlling father. Determined to live his
own life, he took to the sea and settled in the Caribbean,
joining a band of treasure-hunting pirates and adopting the
persona of a carefree, seductive Frenchman named Jean Paul
to guard the secrets of his past. When he slips back into
England to carry out an urgent task, Richard becomes
infatuated with a married woman, Georgina Malory. But his
reckless attempt to woo Georgina at a masked ball turns out
to be the worst mistake of his life because it brings him
face to face with another beautiful woman.
Thrilled that her solicitors have finally come
up with a way to free her from her betrothal contract to the
Earl of Manford’s son who abandoned her years ago, heiress
Julia Miller is ready for the marriage mart and hopes to
find that perfect someone at her friend Georgina’s ball.
Charmed by a masked Frenchman who gives her her first kiss,
she can’t help but pursue this mysterious man—until she
makes a shocking discovery. Now, to avoid falling into a
ruthless nobleman’s trap, Julia must enter a risky, intimate
charade with a man she never believed she could love.
