Lords Of Passion

In "Beauty and the Brute" by Virginia Henley, it's been three years since Lady Sarah Caversham set eyes on arrogant Charles Lennox - the husband her father chose for her to settle a gambling debt. Now Charles has returned, unaware that the innocent ingenue he wed is determined to turn their marriage of convenience into a passionate affair. In "How to Seduce a Wife" by Kate Pearce, Louisa March's new husband, Nicholas, is a perfect gentleman in bed - much to her disappointment. But when she dares him to seduce her properly, she discovers Nicholas is more than ready to meet her challenge. Maggie Robinson's "Not Quite a Courtesan" introduces Prudence Thorn, who has been too busy keeping her cousin Sophy out of trouble to experience any adventures of her own. But when Sophy begs for Prudence's help in saving her marriage, Pru encounters handsome, worldly Darius Shaw. Under Darius' skilled tutelage, Pru learns just how delightful a little scandal can be.
