Tess Starling is willing to risk everything and offer anything to avenge her fathers death. Upon leaving her fathers gravesite, Tess spies creditors confiscating the finery of her first London Season. But her gowns will do little to satisfy her fathers debts. Fleet Prison awaits her. Tess dons a homely disguise, cloaking herself in mourning weeds. She is determined to evade the authorities until she brings to justice the swindler who ruined her father. Resolute in her quest, she will transform anew, reinventing herself as a temptress to seduce the villain. She only wants for hands-on training, but the man who volunteers proves too much of a distraction. Everything about Tallon Hawkes, the Earl of Marcliffe, fascinates, including the battle scars marking his body. A motivated pupil, Tess yields eagerly to his sexual demands.

But will his arrogant maneuver lose him any chance with Tess? Warning, this title contains the following: graphic language, explicit sex, light spanking, anal sex.
