“I’ll be your scoundrel, not your hero.”
Broken and battle-shattered, former Duke of Grandhampton—Lord Spencer Seaton—returns from war to discover he has lost everything. His title. His future. His hope.
Only one purpose remains: destroy the man who ruined his life.
Nothing can stop Spencer…
Except Miss Joanna Digby.
Brilliant, guarded, and overlooked by Society, Joanna hides her true self behind a quiet façade—until her family is threatened by the same powerful enemy who destroyed Spencer. To save them, she must strike a dangerous bargain with the one man she should never trust.
When Spencer corners Joanna with a scandalous wager, her pulse stutters:
If she wins — he’ll use his wealth and influence to save her family.
If he wins — she’ll give him what he desires more than air… her untouched innocence.
Three dangerous days.
Two unwilling allies.
One wager that changes everything.
Forced into close proximity, desire ignites—fierce, forbidden, and impossible to resist. But as their enemy closes in, Spencer and Joanna must choose: cling to vengeance, or risk their hearts on a love strong enough to resurrect a man who came back from the dead?
Perfect for readers who love:
- Scoundrel heroes with secrets
- Dangerous bargains
- Forbidden love
- Family secrets and hidden danger
- A heroine who sees too much
- Steamy Regency romance
