About this ebook
Scandal! Gossip!
When kidnapped English heiress Zoe Lexham daringly escapes from captivity, her problems have only begun. After 12 years in a harem, she knows far more about erotic practices than how to conduct a proper conversation in civilized parlors.
Her reception from London society's ladies is arctic; the proposals from their husbands and brothers exceedingly...warm; and her loving, but overwhelmed, aristocratic family fear she'll be an outcast forever—unless someone can launch her to success (and a good marriage)!
Enter Lucien de Grey, the Duke of Marchmont...Lucien is no knight in shining armor. He's cynical, easily bored, dangerous to women, and utterly indifferent to popular opinion. But good looks, combined with money and title, make him welcome everywhere. The most popular bachelor in the Beau Monde can easily save Zoe's risqué reputation...if he can prevent the chemistry between them from getting so out of hand...so often...and so deliciously!
