An innocent young woman flirts with scandal and becomes the mistress of her own forbidden desires in this stimulating Regency romance from the author of Mastering the Marquess. Lady Cynthia Westhope can't believe the shocking rumor is true. Her childhood friend, the daughter of a duke no less, has become the madam of London's most exclusive and notorious brothel. Though she's known as "Sin," Cynthia is scandalized - and surprisingly curious. Just picturing the whips, the chains, the uncontrollable urges men gratify behind closed doors sends a jolt of electricity through her body. Still, Sin can't imagine taking part in such games - until she's snatched off the street during a raging storm and swept away to a remote cottage. When James Winters encounters the comely virgin, he assumes she's one of Madame Blanche's fresh new beauties, especially after Sin pulses in ecstasy as he ravishes her. Then he discovers that she's Lord Westhope's virgin daughter . . . or was. Now they will both be compromised, unless James devises a plan to save Sin from disgrace. Before long, they're entangled in a web of tempting propositions, family secrets, and sensual intrigue - and bound together so tightly that James never wants to let go.
