The Bourne Matrimonial Agency has one rule: Never fall in love with
the client. However, they never said anything about kissing a rake...
Briar Bourne's matchmaking career could be summed up in two
words--comic disaster. Unless she can learn about the irresistible
forces that draw men and women together, her professional future looks
rather bleak. But Briar has an intriguing plan--enlisting London's most
irredeemable rake to teach her everything he knows about attraction.
Given his notorious reputation, it's no surprise that Nicholas
Blacklowe, the Earl of Edgemont, requests one thing in exchange for his
tutelage. For every lesson, he wants a kiss in return. And what harm
could there be in a simple kiss? After all, Briar would never fall for
a scoundrel...
Nicholas has no romantic notions about love, and no intention of
changing his ways. He's only helping Briar so that she can find the
perfect bride for his jilted cousin. Yet Briar is so clever, so curious,
so candid--so blasted tempting--that soon, Nicholas can't stop wondering
what it might be like if he was irresistible to her.
Ten lessons. Ten kisses. And a million ways to fall hopelessly,
scandalously in love.
