#1 New York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey sweeps readers away on a seductive adventure with the "wickedly witty, lusciously sensual" (Booklist) Malory family when a detested marriage contract turns childhood enemies into passionate lovers.
Nine years ago, Richard Allen fled his controlling father and England for the Caribbean. There, he joined a band of treasure-hunting pirates and adopted the persona of a carefree, seductive Frenchman named Jean. When he reluctantly slips back into England to carry out an urgent task, Richard becomes infatuated with a married woman, Georgina Malory. But his reckless attempt to woo Georgina at a masked ball brings him face to face with yet another beautiful woman.
Finally free from her betrothal to the Earl of Manford’s son who abandoned her years ago, heiress Julia Miller is anxious to find a husband at her friend Georgina’s ball. Charmed by a masked Frenchman, she can’t help but pursue this mysterious man—until she makes a shocking discovery. Now, to avoid falling into a ruthless nobleman’s trap, Julia must enter a risky, intimate charade with a man she never believed she could love.
With a little help from the lucky-in-love Malory family, will Richard and Julia discover in each other that perfect someone?
