What is a proper young lady to do when she finds a stranger sleeping in her bed?
Angelique Grafton knows little of love. But she knows she should walk away when she finds a devilishly handsome man in her bed. It would be the proper thing to do, especially since she's already promised to someone else. Yet for the first time in her life, shy Angel finds herself tempted to defy propriety-and her family's wishes-for a taste of freedom.
Nathaniel Howerty, the Marquess of Pensington, knows too much about love. After seeing his father destroyed by losing his wife, Nathaniel vowed never to marry someone he could fall in love with. But when he meets Angel, he can't deny their chemistry. . . and when she asks for a kiss, his carefully constructed walls begin to crumble.
As scandal threatens to destroy Angel's reputation, Nathaniel wavers. Does he dare to leave himself vulnerable to the woman who might steal not only his kisses, but his heart as well?
