Gorgeous As Sin — Susan Johnson

From one of the best-known names in erotic romance comes the first in a sizzling new historical-romance trilogy starring a headstrong woman and the handsome rake determined to bring out her sultry side...

Fitz Monckton, Duke of Groveland, has never encountered a woman he could not seduce -- until he clashes with the beautiful Rosalind St. Vincent, whose bookshop sits in the way of Fitz's lucrative development deal.

Left nearly penniless because of her late husband's gambling debts, Rosalind has managed to save her bookshop by dint of hard work and through a foray into a slightly irregular endeavor. She has no intention of selling her shop to satisfy the whim of an entitled scoundrel -- even if said scoundrel is gorgeous as sin.

If money won't entice Rosalind to sell her shop, Fitz must tempt her in other ways -- hopefully mutually pleasurable ways profitable to them both. As for the lady's obstinate resistance, that will only make her inevitable surrender all the sweeter...
