Desperate times call for devilish measures. When the object
of one's passion has eyes for another…it's time to take
matters in hand!
***
Lady Vesta Chambers is accustomed to getting what she
wants…and what she wants is Captain Hewett DeVere…
Coddled and pampered since her mother's death, Lady Vesta
Chambers is beside herself when her father goes to London to
prepare for her come-out and returns with a young bride of
his own. With her world turned upside down, Vesta
accompanies her godmother, Diana, to town where she is
smitten the moment she lays eyes on a certain captain of the
Seventeenth Light Dragoons.
But when the object of her passion has eyes for another…
Captain Hewett DeVere, younger brother and heir to Viscount
Ludovic "The Devil" DeVere, has returned from the American
war scarred, disillusioned, and looking forward to settling
down to a quiet and respectable life. But when the handsome
and straight-laced captain turns his eyes toward the widowed
Diana, Vesta is prepared to take devilish measures to prove
just how wrong he is.
And the Devil DeVere looks after his own…
Recruiting the aid of her godfather, Vesta vows to prove to
Hew once and for all that she is no longer a little girl,
but a woman with the passion of…a huntress.
