Description

The house party at Lord and Lady St. Ervan's country house is just what widowed Lizzie, Lady Elborough, needs to satisfy her need for something—or someone—new and different. Her heart will always belong to her late husband, but she's fond of a good romp now and again.

Fellow guest Matthew Jackson, Duke of Teversham, seems the perfect target, even though their hostess warns Lizzie his charm is irresistible. Sure enough, she's in danger of falling, but he seems to return the emotions. Then his former love arrives, wishing to reclaim her spot in his heart—and bed. Lizzie's wants to feel relieved she has kept her heart safe, but is it really? If she opens herself up, can she win the heart of the duke?
