About this ebook

Amelia Cynster is stunned to hear these words from Lucien Ashford—the enigmatic sixth Viscount Calverton and the man she has always loved—just before the handsome rogue passes out at her feet. Dawn is breaking and she's already risked scandal by lying in wait for him just outside his London home. And though torn between indignant affront and astonished relief, she's nevertheless thrilled that Luc has agreed to her outrageous marriage proposal.

However, rather than submitting to a hasty wedding as Amelia had planned, the exasperating lord insists on wooing her properly…in public and in private. She longs for their time alone, when she can learn all about seduction from a master, yet frustratingly, they all too often find themselves beneath the stifling gaze of the ton.

But there is method behind the viscount's madness—he has a secret reason for wooing Amelia. And like all desirable things, his passion has a price.

Ratings and reviews

Overall a good book, i liked Amelia's character better than her sister because she seemed a lot more sensible and much less like a spoiled girl. Although the reoccurring conflict that ms.laurens constantly includes of the man unwilling to say "i love you" is just annoying now. I have read all the cynester novels up until this one and im sad to say it will be my last. I'm a bit tired of reading the same story over and over again.

A story of love & crime, great written!
