For Adela, nothing  is more insulting than being denied her rightful inheritance for a  scoundrel like Wilson - the very man who broke her heart following  a lusty dalliance years ago.  \n\u003cbr\u003eWilson Ruffington never anticipated the intense desire Adela could  still stir within him. Despite his wicked tongue and her haughty pride,  their long-ago passion instantly reignites at a summer house party, the  experience they've gained as adults only adding fuel to the flames.  \n\u003cbr\u003eDetermined to keep Adela in his bed, Wilson devises a ruse - a  marriage of convenience that will provide her family with a generous  settlement, as well as prevent scandalous whispers. Their plan works  perfectly, until family rivalries and intrigue threaten to destroy their  arrangement...and the unspoken love blooming beneath it.  \n\u003cbr\u003e'Da Costa pens a highly titillating, tantalising tale... Not for the faint of heart, but Susan Johnson, Bertrice Small and Brenda Joyce fans will savour the delicious fantasies within.'
