Once he broke her heart, but now hes wickedly tempted... Alexander Ramsey, the youngest son of a duke, has returned to England with a barely healed wound and a war-torn heart. He hopes retiring to a life raising horses near his familys estate will bring him some peace. If only it was that easy. The girl hes done his best to forget has grown into an enticing woman. A woman who despises him, if their accidental encounter in his new house is any indication. Jessica Roweland has no family, certainly no fortune, and to make matters worse-which hardly seems possible-the only home she has ever known has been sold to her despicable arch enemy. The man she once thought she loved. Caught alone in his presence, Jessica faces utter ruin as society begins to whisper over the incident.
