It makes a lady wish she'd been born an only child… All right, she did love the nitwit, and didn't wish him to die; however, that doesn't negate her irritation. Now she is at a disadvantage and the ton won't let her forget her family's scandalous past. She has a secret though, one that she won't confess under any circumstances: Roslyn has already met the man she wants, but he doesn't appear to return her feelings.Emmett North, Marquess of Crawford doesn't want to desire Lady Roslyn, but he cannot stop it from overtaking him. Especially when they keep crossing paths... If only he could forget Roslyn, but she's always around, and she has a biting wit that she unleashes on him whenever their paths cross. There is only one solution to stop her acerbic nature…a kiss.Desire is a force neither of them can ignore, but giving in is something they might both regret. A confession of love might be their only salvation.
