Betrayed by her fiancé and her best friend, Lady Diana Haversham’s reputation is left in ruins, and she is unjustly cast out by her family. Left with little choice, she agrees to pretend to be a courtesan to protect her benefactor’s secret. What she didn’t count on was meeting temptation in the form of one Lord Lucas Blackthorn.

Lucas is fascinated by the shameless Diana, whom his friends claim is his perfect counterpart. He can’t stop thinking about her sultry smile and captivating eyes, but what draws him most is the sharp mind she reveals—and the certainty she’s hiding something.

When Lucas learns the scandalous truth, Diana will have to make a life-and-death choice.

This book had me hooked from line one!  The plot twist has made this book one I will always hold close to my heart.  This book is an emotional roller coaster and I loved every minute of the wild ride!!  Lady Diana shows so much strength and loyalty it has endeared her to me in so many ways I can’t even begin to list them all. Seeing her get her happy ending consumed my life while I read this book.

Lucas Blackthorn is a rogue with a wicked reputation for doing whatever it takes to get what wants.  And right now he wants the one woman everyone says he can’t have.  Will the ends be worth the means for Lucas as he pursues another man’s notorious mistress?

    A fun book that I couldn’t put down, with characters that I am crazy about.   I’m very excited to see who Liana LeFay introduces me to next
