A scoundrel whose fame as an artist, libertine, and notorious seducer of beautiful women is ongoing fodder for the ton, Mallory Claeg has a secret obsession-Brook Meylan, Lady A'Court, a beautiful widow who abandoned London two years earlier, deliberately severing all ties to her past. Under the pretense of his interest in the primitive landscape of the Cornish coast, Mallory watches her, fascinated and utterly mesmerized by her beauty...
Brook tried to escape the gilded cage of the ton's merciless gossip, the memory of a cruel husband, and the pity of well meaning friends. But meddling relatives and unwanted suitors shatter her peace. At first, Mallory Claeg was another intrusion. Yet his sinfully handsome face and irresistible charm bring both temptation and torment. Now Brook must choose between opening her heart-or sealing it off forever...

Professional Reviews
John Charles, ALA Booklist
"With its richly nuanced characters and vivid writing, this lushly sensual historical Regency is supremely satisfying."
Debora Hosey, The Romance Reader's Connection
"Dark, complex, and stunning in its psychological depth, it's simply a tour de force in Regency historical writing. Ms. Pierce proves again that she understands the complexity of the human heart."
Kathe Robin, Romantic Times
"Pierce carries off just-simmering-underneath sexual tension like a virtuoso and keeps readers wondering just how these two dynamic characters will get together. This splendid read shimmers with the temptation of seduction and the healing power of love."
