Penniless and desperate after her father's abandonment, Julia has no one else to turn to. The duke knows he should send her away. Sheltering a compromised woman could ruin them both. But the fierce vulnerability in her eyes captivates him, and against all reason, he offers his protection.
As days turn to weeks in his townhouse, the tension between them ignites into something far more dangerous than scandal. Julia's never trusted a man—not after her father's betrayal. And Charles has spent years avoiding entanglements that threaten his carefully controlled world.
But desire doesn't follow society's rules. And some rogues are worth the risk.
