When dealing with the devil, it's easy to be burnedโฆespecially when passion ignites the flames.
***
Who can find a virtuous womanโฆ Beautiful, respectable, and dutiful, Lady Diana Palmerston-Wriothesley, has long resigned herself to her twelve-year loveless and childless marriage to a feckless husbandโฆuntil his gambling pushes them to the brink of financial ruin.
Sometimes the devil is in disguiseโฆas a gentlemanโฆ Viscount Ludovic, "The Devil DeVere," is a man accustomed to taking what he wants, according to his whim and heedless of the costโฆuntil he encounters a woman who won't be had at any price.
When dealing with the devil, it's easy to be burnedโฆ When Diana discovers a secret that shatters the carefully built faรงade concealing her private pain, she seeks aid and comfort from the most unlikely placeโฆthe devil's arms. But will a single night of heavenly passion damn them both forever?
