Bold and fiercely opinionated American heiress Lucy Chartrand has proudly left a string of scandals in her wake on both sides of the Atlantic. Her matchmaking mother may long to secure her an aristocratic English husband, but Lucy is tired of being sought after for her family's fortune. She longs for a life of independence and freedom, far from the glittering world of London ballrooms, and she's finally put a plan in motion to make that happen. Gareth Claremont, Earl of Rexingham, has only accompanied his wayward younger sister to a Yorkshire country house party to keep her out of trouble. As always, mayhem finds her. This time, in the form of a new friend, the gorgeous, thoroughly improper, utterly appalling hellion Miss Lucy Chartrand. Gareth intends to do everything he can to keep the ruinous influence of a wild hoyden like Miss Chartrand far from his impressionable sister. But Lucy's brilliant scheme goes hopelessly awry, and now there's one tall, handsome prig standing between her and what she wants most. He finds everything about her infuriating. She finds everything about him insufferable. They'll never suit, regardless of what happened by mistake in the moonlight. Or will they? Heat level: Scorching! Don't say you weren't warned.
