A marquis is tempted by his daughter’s new chaperone in this steamy Victorian romance by a #1 New York Times–bestselling author.
From Meg Cabot, originally writing under the name Patricia Cabot, released as an e-book for the first time!
When beautiful Kate Mayhew is hired as chaperone to Marquis of Wingate Burke Traherne’s headstrong daughter Isabel, the Marquis finds himself in an impossible predicament. Torn between the knowledge that she is exactly what Isabel needs but also, for him, the worst possible temptation, he finds himself in constant proximity with someone who threatens his independence.
Known for his steely self-control since the day he caught his wife with a lover, Lord Wingate has vowed never to risk marriage again. In accepting his lordship’s offer of employment, the feisty Kate faces two perils; her wild attraction to a man who has sworn off love, and a date with her own scandalous past . . . which she cannot keep secret forever.
