His Wicked Heart — Darcy Burke

IT'S HARD TO BE RESPECTABLE Jasper Sinclair, Earl of Saxton, made a bargain with his devil of a father to marry in one month's time. But instead of shackling himself to an acceptable debutante, he indulges his baser needs. He joins a fighting club and pursues a delectable woman who may not be what she seems. Soon he finds himself battling addictions that threaten his already wicked heart. WHEN YOU'D RATHER BE WICKED Orphaned seamstress Olivia West wants the chance to lead an honest, respectable life, but the arrogant Earl of Saxton launches a daunting campaign to make her his mistress. Destitute and desperate, she agrees to one night with the dangerous lord, hatching a scheme to take his money and keep her virtue. However, Jasper uncovers her deception and vows to claim what he's owed -- not his money, her.
