Blurb: Her wicked ways were the talk of the ton
Teresa, Dowager Marchioness of Darent, is rumored to have exhausted her four deceased husbands with her insatiable needs. So it's no surprise that every rake in the ton wants to bed her. If they only knew…through clever marriages to men who would ask nothing of her physical self, Tessa has remained rather innocent in the ways of the bedroom. But now she's on the verge of losing everything and wants to take care of the stepson she's grown to adore.

Enter Captain Owen Purchase. The handsome American adventurer has come into the title of Viscount Rothbury. And the rumors surrounding his injuries at sea suggest that he could fit Tessa's requirements. But little does Tessa realize that the gossipmongers are wrong. She just might lose her heart, and her desires, to the most unlikely of men….

Review: There is a reason why Nicola Cornick is one of my MUST READ authors. Her sassy characters, stimulating plots and tangible emotion keeps me sucked in and wanting more.

No exception to the rule that I have come to expect, this tale delivered on all points....and gave me more :) I literally felt like I was right there in the mix of everything that was going on and I loved every morsel. This tasty read left me totally satisfied and anxiously waiting the next course.

SNAPS Ms Cornick. You are my hero...er...heroine :)
