Description

"One tryst was all she wanted...From the 17 year old's very first meeting in 1891, Julia knew that Aidan Carr, the oh-so-proper Duke of Trathen, had a bit of the devil in him, a devil who secretly yearned for what he could not have, a devil who harbored a desire for her. So 12 years later when she needed to be caught in a compromising situation, 29 year old Aidan was the answer to her prayers. One tryst just wasn't enough...Aidan is supposed to be looking for a bride, yet his scandalous liaison with 29 year old Julia is all he can think about. Hot, erotic memories of kissing her skin, falling into her bed, pulling her naked body on top of his own continue to torment and tempt him. What is it about this brazen seductress that he finds so hard to resist? And how can he stop himself from falling into her bed a second time?"

First Sentence

The London courtroom was packed to the rafters, and Julia could feel the avid stares of the curious crowd boring into her back as she walked up the aisle to stand before the president of the divorce court.
