Book description
If only Miss Lisle Berry Thynne's gown hadn't been so fully cut, or she
hadn't been caught kissing that prince... But now the ton believes Lisle
to be with royal child - and therefore unmarriageable - so she might as
well make her desperate father happy by consenting to wed a beast. A
brilliant surgeon with a reputation for losing his temper - and a wound
believed to have left him... incapable - Piers, Earl of Montague, should
welcome a bride-to-be carrying a ready-made, blue-blooded heir. But
Piers isn't fooled by the lady's subterfuge, and though Lisle's
devilishly smart and charming with a loveliness that outshines the sun,
there will be no wedding of beauty to beast. Still, Lisle finds the
gorgeous brute intriguing, with a spark of gentility behind his growl
that's worth fanning. And it's obvious to the naked eye that 'incapable'
does not mean 'uninterested'... A NEW YORK TIMES bestseller many times
over, Eloisa James lives in New York City, where she is a Shakespeare
professor (with an M. Phil. from Oxford). She is also the mother of two
children and, in a particularly delicious irony for a romance writer, is
married to a genuine Italian knight
