Book Summary
New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh sweeps
us back in time to an age of scandal and glittering society—
and brings to life an extraordinary family: the daring,
passionate Huxtables. Katherine, the youngest sister—and
society’s most ravishing innocent—is about to turn the
tables on the irresistible rakehell sworn to seduce her,
body and soul....
In a night of drunken
revelry, Jasper Finley, Baron Montford, gambles his
reputation as London’s most notorious lover on one woman.
His challenge? To seduce the exquisite, virtuous Katherine
Huxtable within a fortnight. But when his best-laid plans
go awry, Jasper devises a wager of his own. For Katherine,
already wildly attracted to him, Jasper’s offer is
irresistible: to make London’s most dangerous rake fall in
love with her. Then Jasper suddenly ups the ante. Katherine
knows she should refuse. But with scandal brewing and her
reputation in jeopardy, she reluctantly agrees to become
his wife. Now, as passion ignites, the seduction really
begins. And this time the prize is nothing less than
both their hearts.…
