Lord Griffin
Boscastle has no intention of ending his glorious career as
a rakehell now that he has inherited a dukedom. Still, there
are responsibilities he must discharge before his pleasures
resume, including finding a bride, and depositing his
incorrigible niece at a relativeβs academy outside London.
It is at this so-very-proper finishing school that
flame-haired instructress Harriet Gardner awakens in Griffin
emotions so dangerously intoxicating that he must avoid her
at all cost. Yet when Harriet finds work in the townhouse
where Griffin resides, her presence tempts him at every
turn.
Harriet has survived Londonβs streets far too
long to let an arrogant duke woo a bride he doesnβt want
when she desires him for herself, and she has seen too much
of life not to recognize a man ripe for redemption. But just
as Harriet finds the perfect cure for His Lordshipβs
devilish ways, a vindictive enemy intervenes, and the duke
whom Harriet has plotted to save suddenly becomes her
devoted protector.
