Author(s): Virginia Henley

Romance

Lord James Hamilton, heir to the Duke of Abercorn and newly appointed attendant to the young Prince of Wales, is in no rush to find a wife. A lover of all things pleasurable, he's earned his reputation as a rakehell. But when a feisty beauty piques his interest, James finds himself obsessed with learning more about her, and to make her his own.
Lady Anne Curzon-Howe has long been besotted with the handsome James--ever since he compared her to a wild Irish rose. While Anne has many suitors, the elusive James is the one who draws her fancy. But his rakish ways are notorious for a reason, and convincing him to love only her will be an incredible--albeit rewarding--challenge . . .
