Playing with Fire

If any man ever took pride in being a rake, it would be Henry Mordane, Duke of Harrogate. Beholden to no one, desired by every lady he encounters, life couldn’t be better. Even getting caught half-naked in a lady’s bedroom sparks humor… until the ensuing wedding rouses memories and insecurities he’d rather not deal with. The logical answer is to carry on as though nothing has changed. He’ll do as he pleases and allow her to do the same. Perfect. Except when he begins to take a little too much pleasure in provoking his feisty wife… Sharp-tongued Lady Anne Berkeley values her independence. Is it any wonder she becomes irate when that bumbling idiot of a Duke stumbles into her room? How dare her brother force her into marrying the man?! Her husband’s one saving grace is that he seems content to leave her in peace and not interfere with her comings and goings. That’s just fine by her. Until her heart begins to race at the smooth way he counters her verbal jabs… This heated game of cat and mouse may be more dangerous than either of them are prepared for.
