Rogue Around the Edges

When the woman from his dreams winds up in his bed…

Mr. Malcolm Brown has no illusions about his place in the world. Illegitimate, surly, and rough-edged, he manages the thriving farm on his half-brother George’s Somerset estate and has neither the breeding nor temperament for polite society. He’s sworn to never marry or become a libertine like his father. Still, his nightly dreams torment him with the sensual pleasures he denies himself during the day.

But when his aristocratic half-sister descends upon the estate with a house party of eligible young ladies so that George may secure a bride, Malcolm is unwillingly pressed into service as an escort for the sister and chaperone of George’s favorite.

Miss Scarlett Perkins is elegant, poised and perceptive. She is also a doppelganger for the passionate beauty who has haunted his nighttime fantasies.

And then one scandalous mistake places Scarlett in his bed and in his arms. Soon enough, they have to ask whether their passion can withstand the harsh light of day. Could their love be real—or is it just the stuff of dreams?
