"The scandal of the season! Innocent debutante Tessa Branscombe senses that underneath her handsome guardian's cool demeanor there is an intensely passionate nature. The arrogant earl infuriates her--yet makes her want to explore those hidden depths ...

She tempts this very proper earl to misbehave--and forbidden fruit always tastes that much sweeter."--Page 4 of cover.
