Roselyn Longworth has foolishly placed herself in a position from which she will not recover. She trusted the wrong man, and in horror, she watches as he turns on her and actually auctions her off at a dinner party.
Kyle Bradwell takes over the bidding by offering a decisively large amount of money. He is at the party only accidentally, trying to take care of some business, and can't bear to watch Roselyn's humiliation.
Roselyn may have been stunned to be auctioned, but she's almost equally stunned to find that Kyle treats her like a lady. But by now, she knows that everyone has ulterior motives. She just needs to determine what Kyle wants.
Madeline Hunter has been a favorite author of mine since her first book. With a skillful twist of words and emotions, she excels at bringing a story to life. You'll feel the anguish of Roselyn's poor choices, and the honor that is integral to Kyle. A touching read.
First heβll learn her most intimate secrets. Then heβll
arouse her deepest passions. Heβs the lover sheβs been
waiting for: the man who can rescue her from her wicked
pastβfor a priceβin Madeline Hunterβs tale of sin,
seduction, and irresistible, impossible love.

highest bidderβ¦and Kyle Bradwell will lead her from one
kind of hell to another. Yet from the moment he wins her,

a family scandal destroyed her reputation. And when she
finally learns what is really driving Kyle, itβs too late.

intimate secrets. Now he has stunned her with a proposal
