Aprašymas

A notorious rake with a ruined estate. A fortune he intends to claim. A wife he never expected to crave.

Wickedly charming and famously untethered, Rafe Hart, Viscount Blackwood, has never believed in love-only pleasure-and he intends to keep it that way. But when tragedy strikes down his beloved sister and her husband, Rafe is left with three young wards...and desire must give way to duty. This leaves him with only one way forward--he needs a wife. And with the impoverished estate he inherited, he had to find a wealthy one.

Victoria Rockford, an American shipping heiress newly arrived in London, struggles to find her place among the ton-until a dangerously handsome nobleman offers laughter, passion, and the promise of belonging. Rafe is everything Victoria shouldn't want...and everything she does.

What begins as a calculated courtship soon ignites into something far more intoxicating. Rafe wins Victoria's trust, her father's approval, and her hand in marriage-without revealing the full truth of his responsibilities.

But marriage has a way of exposing secrets...

A sensual Regency romance about redemption, responsibility, and the kind of love worth reforming for.
