Practically raised in the duke of Wimberly's (Deme's father) unconventional household, Haven had kept Deme's hide on his fine arse more than once, when his rakehell ways took him to the seedy and dangerous side of London. Now that his best friend, Wolford, had settled down with Lady Juliette, Deme didn't have any intention of following suit…But something was certainly in the air. Haven's father, the celebrated whip, Patrick, had been urging her for years to find her own life and leave Deme to his own devices. There were mysteries of his past, and hers, questions about Haven's mother, that had been causing tension between them lately. Haven is giving serious thought to her father's advice while driving Deme once more to the local village to pursue his usual debauchery. After their usual sharp exchange of words and sarcasm, the tension suddenly changes to something other than anger. When it becomes clear that there was always an attraction beneath their seemingly hostile relationship, Deme and Haven will have to decide if they trust enough to let it become something more.

Lisette can scarcely believe her unconventional mother, the Duchess of Wimberly, actually expects her to agree to the match. But once Lisette makes it clear to the viscount she's not interested and he politely withdraws, she is feeling unexpectedly contrite and in conversing with him afterwards, realizes that despite his "dark" looks he's not so much aloof as...solitary. Elisha was drawn to Lisette Willingham like a moth to a flame. Given his dark past, he drinks every moment of being with her like a man thirsting for water. Lisette is life, breath, the sun and everything he had never known. But when she finally makes it clear she doesn't want to wed, he also realizes he could not bring such a vivacious creature into the nightmare of his world.

When his mother dies, he leaves abruptly, and with the words, "Do not love me," breaks Lisette's heart. But being of the wild Wimberly clan, Lisette's friends and family rally her to go after what she wants. But will walking into Elisha's world be the answer which her heart longs?
