Bad boy He’s ruthless, powerful, and untouchable. She’s the one woman he’s never been able to forget.
Helena Astley—known to the ton as Lady Hell—has plans. Control her father’s shipping empire. Live by her own rules. Never surrender her hard-won independence to any man, least of all a duke who once shattered her composure with a single kiss. She has no intention of revisiting the past…or the dangerous attraction she’s never quite escaped.
Roan Darlington, Duke of Leighton, has no interest in society, sentiment, or marriage. Cold, relentless, and self-made, he’s spent years mastering every weakness—except the woman who still ignites his blood. When a scandal threatens Helena’s future and Roan’s carefully ordered world, he proposes a solution as audacious as it is a sham engagement, to be ended after Christmas.
It’s only a bargain.
Until pretending becomes temptation.
As desire deepens into something neither expected, Helena must decide whether she can risk her heart for the only man powerful enough to claim it. And Roan must choose whether love—wild, consuming, and utterly inconvenient—is worth the one thing he’s never gambled before.
In this scorching enemies-to-lovers Regency romance by USA TODAY bestselling author Tracy Sumner, a defiant lady and a ruthless duke discover that the most dangerous alliance of all is falling hopelessly, passionately in love.
Heat Scorching hot. You’ve been warned.
