Miss Georgina Townsend begged me to ruin her. After all, selfish plunder is what I excel at. How can I, Charles Montclare, second son of an Earl, renowned rake, possibly refuse this beautiful young heiress who's determined to thwart her family's unsavory plans for her future? Of course, I should refuse. She's my friend's younger sister. But she's no longer that spirited young girl. Georgina is now a beautiful and fiery woman who, as always, is making me crazy. Only this time, with desire. This time, with a fire to make her mine. I'm certainly not the marrying kind, but I'm doing everything in my power to protect her. And after I steal a kiss, I'm doing everything to have her for myself. Suddenly both of us are caught in a web of lies, deceit, and scandal. And there's only one solution. Will I ruin her? I must. Contains mature themes.
