A bit about the book –

Miss Tamsin Tisdale believes herself to be completely unsuitable for London life. After a myriad of social mishaps, and the potential ruination of her family name, she's shipped away to her cousin's northern estate. Only after she accepts the type of existence Society dictates she must follow will she be welcomed home.

Marcus Winston, the Duke of Grayson, has a lackluster reputation. The last in a dying line, he's endured a protected life—rank with privilege, but encumbered by isolation. After a brief encounter with rebellion, he learns the devastating consequences of his carelessness and willingly accepts living life from inside his gilded cage.

However, a chance meeting with the brazen Miss Tisdale gives Marc the opportunity to reinvent himself into the man he's always dreamed of being. But when his deception comes to light, and ghosts from both their pasts threaten to unravel the intimacy they've come to cherish, will either of them set their fears aside long enough to embrace love? Or will Miss Tisdale's stubbornness divide them?

A little bit of the book -

Marc watched the faint outline come across the dense morning fog, becoming more discernible as it approached. The tall, thin figure was riding along at a perilous speed, given the morning's lack of visibility. He thought perhaps it was some gangly young man misguided in the fog. It wouldn't be the first time someone accidentally stumbled upon the vast property that made up his family's immodest estate.

Then the fog parted in an almost biblical manner, revealing his gross inaccuracy.

Were those ... breasts?

Marc closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Typically, women didn't ride alone at such an hour and they certainly didn't wander unexpectedly across his property. It'd been quite a while, his last birthday to be exact, since his last intimate encounter with a woman—a gift, compliments of St. Regis—so there was always the possibility that perhaps his half-drunk, sex-starved mind had conjured up the sensual image.

He shook his head, opened his eyes, and looked back again toward the horizon.

Yes, those were most certainly breasts.

And she was most definitely not a young man. The woman's riding habit pulled taut against her body as she raced toward him. Her hair was blowing behind her—various hues of auburn and gold, like wild flames curling about in the wind. Then a decidedly feminine voice burst through the morning's silence, interrupting his self-doubt.

"Oh, thank goodness I found you!"

This was no mirage. She was indeed very real.

And very loud.

A bit about the author –

Jessica Jefferson makes her home in northern Indiana, or as she likes to think of it -- almost Chicago. She is heavily inspired by classic sweeping, historical romance novel-but aims to take those key emotional elements and inject a fresh blend of quick dialogue and comedy.
