Book Description

The Lady and the Libertine

Lord Edmund Waite was everything that Mary Gregg. Lady Mornington despised in a man. He was lewd, lascivious, mocking - the most notorious and successful rake in the realm. Happily, Mary had nothing to fear from this lord of libertines. A bluestocking like her could never tempt a man whose taste ran to pretty playthings for his pleasures.

How startled Mary was to find herself the object of Lord Waite's determined desires. But even more surprising was her reaction to his shocking advances. How could she remain a lady with this man who knew so well how to make her feel like a woman...?
