Publisher Description
The notorious “Devil Duke” of Huntington needs a woman—and not just any woman. His fortune depends on him wooing one of the most eccentric bluestockings of the ton within the month, or else he can kiss his hard-earned wealth goodbye. Which is a challenge for any gentleman, let alone one who believes that love is a wasted emotion and marriage (at best) an inconvenience. So it’s hardly a surprise that Lady Sophie Wolcott seems unmoved by his charms and attention…
Sophie’s beloved orphanage is in imminent danger, and she will do anything to save it. Even if it means marrying a ruthless rake who takes what he wants in business and in pleasure. But while the Devil Duke is everything Sophie’s always feared, she can’t quite resist just how much she yearns for the scoundrel’s very touch…
But the duke has enemies. And as a malevolent shadow from the duke’s past emerges, Sophie’s life—and heart—may depend on the devil she knows.

Customer Reviews
Happy to find a good author.
It’s not easy to find books you are happy you read. So when I find a good author I’m ecstatic. This is my first book by her. I hope the others are as good.
Good plot, good rake, lousy writing.
It could have been a terrific book,. It is not..silly stilted, verbose , a overwritten female character, ruined. Sophie could have en drawn more creatively, , moderately. Not worth reading
A worthy read
What a wonderful, twisting and entertaining read! Wasn’t sure about buying it bc if some of the reviews, but this book was so worth it. What an author. The banter between the H and h, the one liners, the supporting characters-it all came together wonderfully. I enjoyed the mystery, the romance, the suspense and the hilarious banter. Can’t wait to read more by this author. Give her a chance.
