Ready.
Raised in the countryside by her overprotective uncle,
Miss Mina Penny's dream of a triumphant London season is
finally here. She determined her perfect match long ago:
Rafe Bentley, the wickedest rake of them all. There's
only one very large, very unyielding obstacle: Rafe's
brother Andrew, the reclusive Duke of Thorndale.
Aim.
This was supposed to be simple. Duke goes to London. Duke
selects suitable bride. Love match? Not a chance. But
when Andrew meets Mina, she complicates everything. How
can a lady armed with such beauty and brains fall for his
irresponsible degenerate of a brother? Andrew vows to
save her from heartbreak and ruin, no matter the cost.
Desire!
But Mina is no damsel in distress. She's daring,
intuitive, passionate...and halfway to melting Andrew's
cold heart. And although Mina thought she knew exactly
what she wanted, one breathtakingly seductive kiss from
Andrew changes everything. Now Mina must decide between
long-held dreams and dangerous new desires. Could her
true destiny lie in the arms of a duke?
