Vivi, the Duchess of Bradford, loved her husband from the day they first met. She was an unabashed hoyden. He was the heir to a dukedom and her older brotherâs best friend. She vowed to marry him, but she never could have imagined just how dreadfully that youthful promise would go awry, shattering her hope for a future. Having spent the past year in England while the duke has been abroad, she has thrown herself into a cause that wonât lead to more sorrow. Sheâs content with her growing circle of friends in the Ladyâs Suffrage Society and is doing her utmost to banish the Duke of Bradford from her heart and mind for good. But then she discovers she has an unexpected guest at her country-house partyâthe husband who left her. Not only is he back, but Court is far more sinfully handsome than she remembered, and he wants the one thing she isnât prepared to giveâher complete and utter surrender. Heat level: Scorching! Don't say you weren't warned.
