As headstrong as she is beautiful, Lady Cassandra Vernham
defied convention when she refused to marry the man who had
compromised her. Now, estranged from her family, Cassandra
struggles to make ends meet. A recent auction of her jewels
has brought her a modicum of relief, but one of the most
valuable lots was never paid for by the highest bidder:
handsome, rakish Viscount Ambury. Cassandra needs that money
badly, and not to buy a new hat.
Ambury has only to look at Cassandra to begin imagining her
in his bed... He has not settled that outstanding debt for a
reason. He suspects that the expensive baubles were stolen,
perhaps even by Cassandra herself. Erotic fantasies about
her notwithstanding, the vixen is not to be trusted, for she
has already destroyed his good friend—the man she
refused to marry who later lost his life in a duel, which
Ambury suspects was fought over Cassandra. But nothing is as
it seems...
As the seductive lord and the scandalous beauty are drawn
together, the passion that flares between them will
illuminate shocking secrets that will change both their
lives forever...
