Rufus Drake: Duke Of Wickedness

By Carole Mortimer

A tantalising bargain…

When innocent Anna Bishop finds herself in a compromising position the only person who can save her is Rufus Drake, notorious rogue, new Duke of Northamptonshire and the man upon whose lands she's trespassing! But the duke's help comes with conditions…

The deal: a single kiss in exchange for his assistance.

The complication: that one kiss unleashes an insatiable desire and, suddenly, a single taste can never be enough…for Rufus or for Anna!
