Synopsis

Intelligent, practical Mary Challoner knew wicked Dominic Alastair, Marquis of Vidal, wouldn't marry her sister, despite her mother's matchmaking schemes. So Mary coolly prepared to protect her sister by deceiving Vidal. But she certainly hadn't expected the infuriated nobleman to kidnap her! Reluctantly awakening to his responsibility—and realizing just how serious Mary was about her virtue—Vidal proposed marriage.

But after all the carefully laid wedding plots he'd dodged, Vidal had never expected to be refused by a chit! Baffled, bewitched and frustratingly tempted, Vidal swore that Mary would be his wife. Even if it was the last thing either of them ever did…

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

Présentation de l'éditeur

You elected to come to me and by God you`ll obey me, if I have to lay my whip about your sided! The excesses of the young Marquis of Vidal are even wilder than his father`s before him. Not for nothing is the reckless duellist and gamesmaster called the Devil`s Cub. But when he is forced to leave the country, Mary Challoner discovers his friendish plan to abduct her sister. And only by daring to impersonate her can Mary save her from certain ruin. . .
