Now she and her two best friends run King & co, London's most discreet investigative agency. Longing to taste the physical pleasure she’s never experienced but unwilling to risk her hard-won independence by marrying again, she realises a scandalous offer from the handsome new Duke could be the answer to her prayers . . .

He’ll marry some suitable chit, set the duchy to rights, and return to his old life within the year. So when the ravishing woman he kissed at a party turns out to be the Dowager Duchess, Justin makes the most logical suggestion: a year-long marriage of convenience - and passion - that will suit them both. The attraction that sparks between them is undeniable, but as Tess works on a new case at the behest of Queen Charlotte, her increasingly suspicious behaviour makes Justin question her motives - and her past. The infuriating woman clearly can’t be trusted, but Justin doesn’t believe in love, so there’s absolutely no danger of him falling for his own wife . . . is there?

Shipping heiress Georgiana Caversteed is done with men who covet her purse more than her person. Even worse than the ton’s lecherous fortune hunters, however, is the cruel cousin determined to force Georgie into marriage. If only she could find a way to be . . . widowed? Georgie hatches a madcap scheme to wed a condemned criminal before he’s set to be executed. What could possibly go wrong? Benedict William Henry Wylde, scapegrace second son of the late Earl of Morcott and well-known rake, is in Newgate prison undercover, working for Bow Street. Georgie doesn’t realize who he is when she marries him - and she most certainly never expects to bump into her very-much-alive, and very handsome, husband of convenience at a society gathering weeks later. Soon Wylde finds himself courting his own wife, hoping to win her heart since he already has her hand. But how can this seductive rogue convince brazen, beautiful Georgie that he wants to be together... until actual death do they part?
