Kleypas, Lisa
Although beautiful young widow Phoebe
Lady Clare
has never met West Ravenel
she knows one thing for certain: he's a mean
rotten bully. Back in boarding school
he made her late husband's life a misery
and she'll never forgive him for it. But when Phoebe attends a family wedding
she encounters a dashing and impossibly charming stranger who sends a fire-and-ice jolt of attraction through her. And then he introduces himself . . . as none other than West Ravenel. West is a man with a tarnished past. No apologies
no excuses. However
from the moment he meets Phoebe
West is consumed by irresistible desire . . . not to mention the bitter awareness that a woman like her is far out of his reach. What West doesn't bargain on is that Phoebe is no straitlaced aristocratic lady. She's the daughter of a strong-willed wallflower who long ago eloped with Sebastian
Lord St. Vincent - the most devilishly wicked rake in England. Before long
Phoebe sets out to seduce the man who has awakened her fiery nature and shown her unimaginable pleasure. Will their overwhelming passion be enough to overcome the obstacles of the past? Only the devil's daughter knows...
