A spinster finds herself seduced into a world of passion and suspense by a roguish lord in the New York Times–bestselling author's sexy Regency romance. A mere whisper of the name "Gentleman James" sends chills throughout the ton (and thrills the ladies who have heard rumors of his amorous exploits). But with the passing of the father he never knew, the dashing brigand is shocked to inherit a title, a fortune . . . and a mission of revenge. Considered unmarriageable at twenty-five, Lady Elizabeth has the perfect life, snuggled among her beloved books while caring for her curmudgeonly grandfather. Or so she thinks until she meets Christian Llevanth, Viscount Westerville—and discovers the delicious ache of desire. But there is more to the mysterious viscount than what so pleasingly meets the eye . . . more romance, more intrigue, and certainly more passion that Elizabeth ever anticipated.
