Beauty tames the beast when a marriage of convenience becomes anything but convenient for a duke with dark secrets. Haunted by a dark secret, Dorian, the Duke of Rath, is consumed by wrath and guilt. The powerful lord will endure any torture to atone for his sins, even marry a perfect stranger—his victim’s little sister—to save her family from ruin. He vows not to touch her and to protect the innocent girl from his depraved sensual pleasures. But she must stay for one year and follow his strict rules. When botanist Miss Patience Rose walks down the aisle in her simple dress, with garden soil permanently embedded under her short nails, she lets a little sunlight into Rath’s blackened heart. Young, innocent Patience drives her older husband mad with her cheery chatter and her irresistible curves. She’s breaking every one of his rules. He punishes her...and she likes it. Love is healing Rath’s soul and transforming his bleak, imposing mansion into a warm home. There’s just one thing keeping them apart—the ghastly secret that could send him to the gallows. And Patience is putting her brilliant mind to work to uncover it. Other volumes of the 'Seven Dukes of Sin' 1 - Duke of Rath 2 - Duke of Luhst 3 - Duke of Pryde More books to follow.

Nothing could change him for the better. Save, perhaps, her. Seductive as a deadly sin, Lucien Wrenn, the Duke of Luhst, can tempt any lady into his bed. But his best friend’s little sister—bluestocking scientist Lady Chasity Perrin—is forbidden fruit. And he’s spent a lifetime aching to take a bite. Chastity has always loved Lucien but the thoughtful boy she cherished grew into a careless rogue. Content with her lot as a spinster, she fights to advance her medical research in a world that denies women's place in science. They can never be together until they clash in a heated argument and make a scandalous wager… During a month-long house party, both must do the impossible: sinful Lucien must remain celibate and wallflower Chastity must secure a marriage proposal. When every eligible bachelor begins to compete for made-over Chastity, Lucien burns to claim her as his own. As summer storm traps them, no vow of friendship can hold him back from breaking every rule to possess her. As they grow closer—body and soul—his touch unravels her and she begins to crave something very dangerous: him. For the first time, someone sees straight to his wounded soul, and makes him want to be worthy of the only woman he loved his whole life. But when Chastity's older brother learns his sister has been compromised, all hell breaks loose.

A marriage of convenience forces a powerful duke to choose between his ferocious pride and love that melts his icy heart. Reputation is everything in the ton. And no one's is more pristine than Constantine Buccleigh, Duke of Pryde's. But when a blackmailer threatens to expose his devastating secret and have him lose everything, he’s forced to marry Miss Modesty Fairchild, a woman far below his station. A budding archeologist, Modesty would rather dig in the dirt than host a gala. But a deathbed promise has left her the guardian of an orphaned baby. She’ll do anything to protect her little ward…even marry the heartless duke who made the most offensive proposal in the history of womenkind. Lonely in Pryde’s elegant Mayfair home, she despises the cold, unyielding duke who expects her to become his perfect duchess. She loathes his arrogance. He resents her defiancé. But as dance lessons and etiquette tutorials force them together, Modesty refuses to shrink beneath his iron control. And with every act of rebellion, she shatters his carefully crafted armor, revealing the lonely, broken man beneath. Glimpsing the tender heart beneath her husband’s haughty exterior, Modesty dreams of a loving future. But a villain in the shadows plots Pryde’s downfall. And as the Seven Dukes of Sin hunt for clues, the blackmailer raises the stakes. Faced with a dreadful choice, will Constantine sacrifice his pride and his title for the wife and child he has come to treasure?
