About this audiobook

The one thing he cannot reveal to the one woman he most desires is his deepest need.

Jasper Renshaw, Viscount Vale, has a problem: he needs to marry and produce an heir to the title. All Jasper wants is to find a lady who will put up with him long enough to wed so he can retreat to his life of debauchery, a life that keeps the haunting memories of his past at bay. Knowing that Jasper is under pressure to wed, Melisande Fleming grasps her fate with both hands and volunteers to marry him. Although Jasper is initially interested only in producing an heir, he soon becomes entranced by his wife who is prim and proper by day, but wanton by night. Jasper vows to learn her secrets.

Melisande, however, is determined to keep her husband at a distance. She has loved and lost before and will do anything to keep him from learning her terrible weakness: she's secretly been in love with him for years. But to her chagrin, her husband pursues her, wooing her as if she were a paramour, not his wife. As Melisande and Jasper embark on a passionate game of cat and mouse, secrets from the past begin to resurface, threatening to tear them asunder.

Ratings and reviews

This is an amazing story. I love the set up. The way that the introduction plays out is just perfect. The banter between the characters is just wonderful. I love all the characters and their depths. Getting to know them throughout the story was a true joy. The plot was such an interesting one. I love the duality to it. The love relationship developing as well the drive to solve the mystery. It was such a compelling story. I highly recommend this story.
