Podrobnosti o e‑knize

With her signature “delightful, sensual, and poignant” (RT Book Reviews) prose, New York Times bestselling author Sabrina Jeffries delights fans with the sexy finale to her Hellions of Hallstead Hall series, now in a vibrant new package.

Lady Celia Sharpe has always been wary of marriage, but now her future depends on it. With two months left to find a husband and fulfill her grandmother’s ultimatum, Celia sets her sights on three eligible bachelors. Becoming betrothed to one of these wealthy men will prove her capable of getting married, so hopefully the wedding itself won’t be necessary for Celia to receive her inheritance.

A vital step in her audacious plan is hiring the dangerously compelling Bow Street Runner, Jackson Pinter, to investigate the three men she’s chosen. But with Lady Celia consuming Jackson’s thoughts, the last thing he wants is to help her find a husband.

With shadowed memories of her parents’ mysterious deaths putting her in danger, an illicit attraction to Jackson growing, and her grandmother’s deadline looming, will Celia find a way to seize the future she wants?
