In USA TODAY bestselling author Eva Leigh's new novel a notorious rake and an innocent debutante strike a scandalous bargain... When Kieran Ransome's latest antics result in a massive scandal, his father issues an ultimatum: find a respectable wife or inherit nothing. But, as one of London's most inveterate scoundrels, Kieran doesn't know any ladies who fit the bill. Or, does he? Celeste Kilburn is a society darling, beloved by influential members of the ton. But, keeping a spotless reputation leaves little room for adventure and she longs to escape her gilded cage, especially with her impending engagement to a stuffy baron. When Kieran-her older brother's best friend and an irresistibly attractive rogue-begs for her help, Celeste makes a deal: she'll introduce him to the right social circles if he'll show her the scandalous side of London. In between proper teas and garden parties, Kieran escorts Celeste-disguised as "Salome"-to rowdy gaming hells, wild f?tes, and sensual art salons. As they spend more time together, their initial attraction builds to a desperate desire that neither can ignore. But when, someone discovers their midnight exploits, Celeste's freedom and reputation are endangered, and Kieran must save the woman he loves... respectable or not.
