Kissing the Rake

Lady Jessica Howerty has harboured a secret passion for her brother’s best friend since she was a girl. Now, all grown up, she knows a rake like Jacob Hurst is the last thing she should want, but after two tiresome seasons in London, she’s found no one else that affects her the way he does. When Jacob’s father offers her to spend the summer at his estate as the companion to his visiting niece, little does she know, her quiet retreat is about to be shattered by the very man who haunts her dreams.

Jacob Hurst, the Earl of Wortham, prides himself on his rakish ways and vows never to marry. But when he discovers his estranged father’s plans to pursue Jessica, he rushes home, determined to prevent the match. He tells himself it’s to protect her, but the sizzling tension between them suggests a far more selfish motive.

As the summer heat rises, so does their forbidden attraction. One reckless kiss is all it takes to ignite a passion that threatens to consume them both. But with Jacob’s scandalous past and Jessica’s desire for true love, is there any hope for a future together?
