But when he’s caught alone with an unmarried woman, a hasty marriage threatens his mission. While his new wife is everything a gentleman spy should want—amiable, practical, and unquestioning—she also proves a heady distraction. Arousing his basest instincts, she provokes a bone-deep need in him, the desire to strip her bare of all sense, to entice her to join in his madness. The daughter of a man of science, Winnifred is practiced in the arts of logic … and deception. Her dispassionate exterior hides a dark secret, one she must guard at all costs.

In this battle of wills, matrimony just might be the deadliest game of all. +++Marked by the Marquess contains steamy sex scenes of a primal nature.
