Gwyneth Hall has heard the dark rumors about Sir Edmund
Blackwell, the man she is betrothed to but has never seen.
To save her penniless family from ruin, however, she would
wed the devil himself. And this gorgeous,
moody "devil"sends a tremor of excitement racing through
her when first they meet — sparking the young bride's
determination to turn a marriage of mere convenience into
much more.
Edmund dares never love again. Already wicked tongues
falsely blame him for a crime he didn't commit. And while
his exquisite new bride fills him with intense desire,
their union is simply a means for him to retain his hard-
won lands. Gwyneth is, after all, related to his despised
enemy and therefore not to be trusted. But how long can
Edmund resist the temptation of her luscious lips ... or
her warm, sensuous touch?
