Description

A rule-breaking and unforgettable Regency romance from author Grace Burrowes, with over a quarter of a million books sold.

Darius Lindsey is beset by obligations: His sister is tainted by scandal, his brother is shattered with a widower's grief, and Darius' father has cut him off in retaliation for championing his sister.

To raise desperately-needed coin, Darius has fallen into offering himself discreetly to jaded society ladies, hating himself for what he has sunk to. He hangs onto a shred of honor by refusing to kiss or have intercourse with his clients, though he's losing ground financially each month, and the things he does doand allows to be done to himare almost as bad.
