SummaryThey’re the scandalous Sharpes, five hell-raising
siblings tainted by a shocking family legacy. Now each faces
a daunting ultimatum: marry by year’s end — or
kiss their inheritance good-bye.
In the two decades since a tragic "accident" took the lives
of his parents, Oliver Sharpe, the Marquess of Stoneville,
has survived the scandal surrounding that fateful night by
living as an unrepentant rakehell. And with his grandmother
vowing to disinherit him if he doesn’t settle down and
wed, he plans to fulfill the bargain in true Sharpe style
— by bringing home a fake fiancée from a brothel! But
his scheme is derailed when he rescues an American beauty in
a dire predicament instead. Maria Butterfield came to London
to track down her groom-to-be, who’s gone missing, but
her engagement won’t stop Oliver from getting what he
wants: her, in his bed. His rebellious masquerade may call
his grandmother’s bluff , but it’s soon made all
too real — by a love that tempts him to be a hellion
no more.
