A USA Today bestseller “matches up a sharp-witted heroine with an irresistibly sexy hero” in a Victorian romance of “lively intrigue and potent passion” (Booklist). The biggest secret in London is about to be . . . revealed. Every gentleman is wondering: Who is the beauty in the scandalous nude portrait hanging in one of London’s most fashionable clubs? Is it true that she’s a member of the ton? Who would be so daring? So reckless? Julian Delane, Earl of Parkhurst, has a good idea. So good, in fact, that he’s willing to make a wager on it. If only the bet were all that’s at stake . . . Determined to clear the family name from a scandal that claimed his father’s life, Julian believes the ravishing model will lead him to answers. Rebecca Leland—spirited, adventurous, with a bit of a wild streak—is just as determined to evade his questions. But when Julian finally corners his quarry, he may find Rebecca well worth the pursuit. “The hero and heroine are engaging, making this a pleasantly spicy early beach read.” —Publishers Weekly
