Acclaimed Regency romance from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Amelia Grey

Henrietta doesn't want a husband...

Miss Henrietta Tweed is convinced that she carries a curse—one that's responsible for killing her previous guardians. So when she's sent to Lucien Trent Blakewell, the fifth Duke of Blakewell and the last man her father trusted to care for her, she knows the only way to save the duke is to persuade him to sign over her inheritance and set her free.

Does she?

Lucien doesn't believe there's a curse and just wants to get his new ward off his hands by finding her a suitable husband. But as the chemistry between him and Henrietta grows, he is increasingly tempted to fill that role himself. And when suspicious accidents begin to endanger the Duke's life, Henrietta must take drastic measures to save the one man she could love...

      Caught off guard when beautiful Henrietta Tweed arrives claiming to be his ward, Lucien Trent Blakewell, the notorious Duke of Blakewell, has no choice but to take her in, as all her former guardians are dead, and he is the last one on her late father's list. Finding her a husband is the logical plan, but Henrietta has other ideas. Once the Duke stops resisting his feelings for her, he gets some ideas of his own. A heroine who thinks she's cursed, a hero who is afraid of heights, and an upbeat plot (which includes balloon rides, among other things) sweep readers along at a lively pace in a lusciously spicy romp that is the first in the author's "The Rogues' Dynasty" series. Florida-based Grey ("A Taste of Temptation") also writes as Gloria Dale Skinner.
