Synopsis

They are England's most eligible bachelors, with the most scandalous reputations. But for the right woman, even an unrepentant rogue may mend his ways . . .Lady Grace Mabry's ample inheritance has made it impossible for her to tell whether a suitor is in love with her— or enamored of her riches. Who better to distinguish beau from blackguard than her notorious childhood friend, the Duke of Lovingdon?With no interest in marriage, Lovingdon has long lived only for pleasure. He sees little harm in helping Grace find a proper match. He simply has to teach the lovely innocent all the ploys a scoundrel uses to gain a woman's favor— by demonstrating his wicked ways. But as lessons lead to torrid passion and Grace becomes ensnared in another man's marriage plot, Lovingdon must wage a desperate gamble: Open his heart fully—or risk losing the woman he adores . . .

About Lorraine Heath

Lorraine Heath always dreamed of being a writer. After graduating from the University of Texas, she wrote training manuals, press releases, articles, and computer code, but something was always missing. When she read a romance novel, she not only became hooked on the genre, but quickly realized what her writing lacked: rebels, scoundrels, and rogues. She’s been writing about them ever since. Her novels have been recognized with numerous industry awards and have appeared on the USA Today and New York Times bestseller lists.

Goodreads review by Beatriz on October 23, 2020

Un inicio algo flojo para una serie que viene a darle continuidad a la que es, probablemente, la más famosa de la autora: Scoundrels of St. James. Quizá por eso iba con las expectativas demasiado altas. No es que no haya disfrutado la lectura, eso es casi imposible con una novela de Lorraine Heath,......more

2 Stars I have not had the best experience with Lorraine Heath. The only other book I read was Passions of A Wicked Earl, which was tepid at best and annoying at worst. This one, on the other hand had an indifferent effect on me. Been there and read that. My Thoughts - Ms Heath is clearly skilled......more
