When a young lady is ruined, her friends vow none of them will ever be ensnared by a scoundrel again. They will resist every gentleman’s charms even—and especially—if it means gaining a reputation for being impossible to woo. It will take extraordinary rogues to break their rules... It will take nothing less than the promise of a heart-stopping, breath-catching, happily ever after to woo Lady Minerva Halifax into marriage, but that dream seems doomed. She only attracts money- and position-hungry rogues because she’s the daughter of a wealthy duke. Then her friend’s dashingly irrepressible brother, Evan Price, is injured showing off at a house party, and Min ends up caring for him. As unexpected sparks flash between them, she wonders if Cupid may finally be circling. Evan foolishly falls for his reluctant nurse, but he knows he doesn’t stand a chance of winning her hand without a title. Min is forced back onto the Marriage Mart by her parents, and Evan returns to filling the hollows inside himself with daring adventures and fleeting flirtations. He suddenly finds himself the most desired bachelor in Bath—except by the one person he really wants. But when an absolute scoundrel swoops in to claim Min, Evan must bare his heart and risk everything or chance losing her forever.
