Do You Want to Start a Scandal
On the night of the Parkhurst ball, someone had a scandalous tryst in the library. Was it Lord Canby, with the maid, on the divan? Or Miss Fairchild, with a rake, against the wall? Perhaps the butler did it. All Charlotte Highwood knows is this: it wasn’t her. But rumors to the contrary are buzzing. Unless she can discover the lovers’ true identity, she’ll be forced to marry Piers Brandon, Lord Granville—the coldest, most arrogantly handsome gentleman she’s ever had the misfortune to embrace. When it comes to emotion, the man hasn’t got a clue. But as they set about finding the mystery lovers, Piers reveals a few secrets of his own. The oh-so-proper marquess can pick locks, land punches, tease with sly wit . . . and melt a woman’s knees with a single kiss. The only thing he guards more fiercely than Charlotte’s safety is the truth about his dark past. Their passion is intense. The danger is real. Soon Charlotte’s feeling torn. Will she risk all to prove her innocence? Or surrender it to a man who’s sworn to never love?

Ou melhor, um sonho que algum dia talvez se tornasse realidade... Oito anos depois, ainda esperando o noivo marcar a data do casamento, Clio já tinha herdado um castelo, tinha amadurecido e não estava mais disposta a ser a piada da cidade. Basta! Ela estava decidida a romper o noivado. Bom... Isso se Rafe Brandon, um lutador implacável e irmão mais novo de Piers, não conseguir impedi-la. Rafe, apesar de ser um dos canalhas mais notórios de Londres, prometeu ao irmão que cuidaria de tudo enquanto ele estivesse viajando a trabalho. Isso incluía não permitir que o Marquês perdesse a noiva. Por isso, está determinado a levar adiante os preparativos para o casamento, nem que ele mesmo tenha que planejar e organizar tudo. Mas como um calejado lutador poderia convencer uma noiva desiludida a se casar? Simples- mostrando-lhe como pode ser apaixonante e divertido organizar um casamento. Assim, Rafe e Clio fazem um acordo- ele terá uma semana para convencê-la a dizer sim ao Marquês. Caso contrário, terá que assinar a dissolução do noivado em nome do irmão. Agora, Rafe precisa concentrar seus punhos e sua força em flores, bolos, música, vestidos e decorações para convencer Clio de que um casamento sem amor é a escolha certa a se fazer.
