About this ebook
Lady Rosalind Rhees has dedicated her life to being as scandalous as possible—it's the only way she can escape society's expectations.
Unfortunately, flirting with ruin hasn't been as exciting as she'd hoped. Two years of playing the wanton widow have yielded plenty of talk but remarkably little thrill. Slipping away unchaperoned to a village harvest dance seems the perfect petty defiance.
Until she meets Major Fraser Lennox at a country party—and gets a taste of just how delicious forbidden desire can feel… But is she daring enough to follow her heart on the strength of one sizzling night?
The battle-weary Scottish officer, bearing a fresh crescent scar from Waterloo, is equally restless. A spirited reel in the taproom soon leads to a stolen kiss beneath the harvest moon. When an unexpected reunion offers an impromptu escape in a borrowed gig, caution vanishes entirely. Plainly, sensible discretion stands no chance against genuine temptation.
