About this ebook

What’s a gentleman to do when a lady demands that he seduce her?

Jarrod, fifth Marquess of Shepherdston, gets the shock of his life when childhood friend Sarah Eckersley shows up on his doorstep one rainy night with a tempting proposition. The daughter of the village rector, Sarah is desperate for money and has decided that becoming a courtesan is her only hope for saving her family. And she wants Jarrod to teach her the art of seduction.

As the leader of the Free Fellows League, Jarrod is wary of a marriage trap. He agrees only to help Sarah find a husband—but soon finds himself bristling at the thought of any other man touching her creamy skin or kissing her luscious lips.

He reluctantly offers Sarah a marriage of convenience, in which he will be hardly a husband—until his heart decides otherwise…

Ratings and reviews

This book started off well, with a heroine who's witty and independent but it quickly escalated into her pursuing the hero which was all she did throughout the book. The 3rd installation in this series is a huge disappointment

Fantastic read, loved it!
