Romance Historical

Lady Elizabeth Brentford is desperately trying to save what's left of her fortune from her brother's greedy, wasteful hands. She goes so far as to following her brother one night to try to save her money. On that fateful trip, Eliza met the Marquess of Haddan, Gryffin Dwight, one of the most infamous noblemen around. Eliza gives up on trusting her brother not to waste her money, and so begins painting to earn money so she can be independent. Although she does not realize it, Eliza is working for Gryffin who loves flowers and what they stand for. The pair are reluctant to admit their attraction, but cannot resist each other. TOO TEMPTING TO RESIST is a romantic fun read that is hard to put down. TOO TEMPTING TO RESIST has all the elements of a great novel... dialogue fitting the time period, deception, courtship, and finally the happy ever after of love.

SUMMARY

In the Wolf's Lair . . . Determined to stop her wayward brother from squandering their dwindling fortune, Lady Eliza Brentford decides to follow him to his favorite den of depravity. There, among the candlelight and raucous revelry, she encounters her brother's role model in debauchery, the notorious Marquess of Haddan, Gryffin Dwight. Staring into his smoldering green eyes, Eliza can't help but find the rakehell nobleman seductively charming-and sinfully attractive. In a Lover's Paradise . . . When Gryffin appears on Eliza's estate as a guest of her brother, a stolen kiss among the garden's blooms leads to a night of unbridled passion. Suddenly the lovely widow feels herself opening up, like the petals of a rose. Could this master of seduction possibly feel true emotion for Eliza? Or is he leading her down the garden path to an Eden of delights no woman can resist-and a fall no woman can escape?
