BLURB:

She's the one woman he can't seduce. He's the one man she can't resist. Their scandalous bet threatens to upend the ton.

Nothing could change him for the better. Save, perhaps, her.

Lucien Wrenn, the Duke of Luhst, can seduce any woman. But his best friend’s sister—bluestocking Lady Chasity Perrin—is forbidden fruit. And he’s spent a lifetime craving her. They can never be together, until a heated clash leads to a scandalous wager.

During a month-long house party, sinful Lucien must remain celibate, and awkward Chastity must secure a marriage proposal. As suitors flock to Chastity, Lucien battles his hunger…and loses. Trapped together in a storm, he awakens the fierce woman within her. And she inspires him to be a better man. But when the Duke of Rath learns his sister has been compromised, all hell breaks loose!
