Ripped Bodice

It's all fun and games … until someone falls in love.

Oliver Goswick, Viscount Rathburn, needs moneyβ€”and soon.
With time ticking away and his inheritance held hostage
until he's properly wed, Rathburn's slim options point to a
single solution: a faux engagement. In need of the perfect
bride, he knows of only one candidate: his best friend's
wallflower sister. The plan seems flawless, except for one
problem …

He can't help falling in love with her.

Poised, polished Emma Danvers knows nothing good can come of
Rathburn's scheme. Spending the next two months engaged in a
mock courtship is not what she'd imagined for her final
season. Yet, charmed by his roguish ways and the
inexplicable hammering he causes in her heart, she accepts
his challenge.

For Emma, keeping the secret seemed easy when it was just a game …

But as Rathburn begins to see past her reserved
exterior to the passionate woman within, the risk of losing
her heart becomes all too real.

Excerpt

She looked at Rathburn, watching the buttons of his waistcoat move
up and down as he caught his breath. When he looked away from the
door and back to her, she could see the dampness of their kiss on
his lips. Her kiss.

He grinned and waggled his brows as if they were two criminals
who’d made a lucky escape. β€œNot quite as buttoned-up as I
thought.” He licked his lips, ignoring her look of disapproval.
β€œMmm…jasmine tea. And sweet, too. I would have thought you’d
prefer a more sedate China black with lemon. Then again, I never
would have thought such a proper miss would have such a lush,
tempting mouth either.”

She pressed her lips together to blot away the remains of their
kiss. β€œHave you no shame? It’s bad enough that it happened. Must
you speak of it?”

He chuckled and stroked the pad of his thumb over his bottom lip
as his gaze dipped, again, to her mouth. β€œYou’re right, of course.
This will have to be our secret. After all, what would happen if
my grandmother discovered that beneath a faΓ§ade of modesty and
decorum lived a warm-blooded temptress with the taste of sweet
jasmine on her lips?”
