Sparks abound in this sizzling new Legendary Lovers tale
from New York Times bestselling author Nicole Jordan, in
which a seductive rakehell must woo his spirited but
love-shy bride while unmasking a mysterious assailant.

Despite his notorious reputation, Quinn Wilde, Earl of
Traherne, has mostly honorable intentions. So when beautiful
Venetia Stratham boldly enters a gentlemen’s club, demanding
that Quinn stop courting her sister, he does what any
bachelor would do: He kisses her. With her sharp wit,
intoxicating passion, and surprising vulnerability, Venetia
is irresistible—except for all this nonsense about
threatening to shoot Quinn. But when clandestine enemies
make an actual attempt on the earl’s life, Venetia is
implicated. To save her good name, Quinn does what any true
gentleman must do: He proposes.

Thus Venetia finds herself wed to arrogant, wickedly sensual
Quinn, whose devilish ways are as legendary as his rumored
skills as a lover. Yet vexingly, her body rebels against her
vow to remain immune to his many charms. If only she could
reform the infuriating nobleman—without diminishing his
undeniable allure. As Venetia discovers that a true rake is
hard to tame, Quinn faces an even greater challenge: winning
his wife’s fragile trust . . . while defending both their lives.
