Tall, Dark, and Wicked

A well-known barrister and son of a duke, Ives confines his passionate impulses to discreet affairs. But a twist of fate has him looking for a new lover right when a fascinating woman shows up in his chambers asking him to help save her father from the gallows. Unfortunately, he has already been asked to serve as the prosecutor in the case, which only ensures close encounters with Miss Padua Belvoir. And every encounter increases his desire to tutor her in pleasure's wicked ways. Having always been too tall, too willful, and too smart to appeal to men, Padua is shocked when Ives shows interest in her. She had hoped he might be her father's salvation. Instead, he is her worst adversary-- and biggest temptation.
