A Rogue's Pleasure — Hope Tarr

SEDUCTION IS ... A DARING ROGUE

Dear Reader,

The pistol in my face made it prudent to give up my money and valuables, though my fiancee protested the loss of her pearls. The highwayman made good his escape, but there was something amiss in his slim figure, the pitch of his voice, the pouting lips. This was no ordinary thief. This thief was a woman!

I was determined to find the comely robber -- and not just to reclaim the pearl necklace. And soon enough I caught her stealing from my very own town house! But this time I was better rpepared. Holding her captive, I removed her disguise and uncovered a stunning beauty. Chelsea Bellamy's brother had been kidnapped, and in desperate need of funds for the ransom, she had resorted to a life of crime. Intrigued by her predicament and determined to seduce her, I offered her my assistance in rescuing her brother. The challenge of finding him was a welcome distraction from the boredom that plagued me, but the real challenge would be in wooing Chelsea to my bed...
