Lady Sarala, who was born and raised in India, accompanies
her parents when they return to England. Feeling out of
place with all the rules and structure in English society,
Sarala tries to conform to those rules. She hides her
business acuity and acts as empty headed as the rest of the
debutantes. While dancing with one of the powerful
aristocrats, Sarala learns about a business deal he is
about to close. Never one to miss a profit, Sarala buys the
China silks before he arrives at the ship.
Furious that a woman has bested him, Lord Charlemagne, the
second son of the Griffin family, intends to get his silks
back. He cajoles and bargains with Sarala with no success.
For the first time in his life, Shay does not win in
negotiations. Unwilling to lose, Shay sets out to seduce
the beautiful young woman. Despite his best efforts, Shay
cannot focus on winning the silks. Sarala bewitches him
with her wit, intelligence and beauty.
As their negotiations become picnics and intoxicating
kisses, Shay and Sarala forget that a mighty Griffin cannot
wed someone born outside of England. When a Chinese
swordsman and an emperor's honor come into play, Shay and
Sarala are compelled to use their heads or lose them.
Bestselling author Suzanne Enoch creates a wonderful
story filled with humor, passion and intrigue. SOMETHING
SINFUL is simply something wonderful!
She was a vision, an exotic goddess who floated across the
ballroom, conjuring images of warm nights and silk sheets,
and Lord Charlemagne Griffin felt lightning shoot straight
to his . . . well, he was definitely interested. So the
lady isn't exactly the sharpest knife on the rack, as Shay
soon discovers, but the generous bosom just above her low
neckline more than makes up for it. Before he knows it,
Shay is bragging about an impending business deal to
impress her . . .
Lady Sarala Carlisle may appear naïve, but too late Shay
realizes her unconventional beauty masks a razor-sharp
intelligence and flawless instincts-and she'd just bested
him! Well, two can play at this game, and one of Shay's
many skills is the fine art of seduction.
But in this contest, the only thing to lose is one's heart.
