Overview

When an unlikely couple falls into bed after reading salacious poetry, what could go wrong? There are two things in life that Nathaniel Grossbeck, Viscount Holdcraft, is passionate about. One is bedding enthusiastic, willing women, and the other is collecting romantic works of poetry. Though he's never tried his hand at writing his own lines, when a certain lady comes back into his life, he might put pen to paper. Trouble is, she's five years his senior and his best friend's sister besides, but would she consider a heated affair with him? Two years widowed, Lady Diana Woodbine-Viscountess of Adderbury-is ready to marry again, because anyone would be better than her dead husband in every aspect of life. When she stumbles into her brother's best friend during a society rout, attraction flares, and she's quite interested, even if he doesn't wish to wed. She agrees to a carnal fling between them, for she has been woefully cheated of satisfaction from her husband, but will it be enough? As the days go by and life events temper the heated desire, the relationship that was supposed to be temporary suddenly... isn't, yet he isn't the storybook, romantic hero she'd always wanted and she's not the sweet, biddable innocent he'd assumed he'd eventually take to wife. Not to mention the potential match is forbidden by her brother on principal, yet scandal persists, so something must be done. The pair will need to throw out old ways of thinking if they're to move forward into a love neither thought they'd find. Tropes You'll Love: ✔ Best Friend's Sister ✔ Widow Romance ✔ Friends with Benefits ✔ Older Woman / Younger Man ✔ Forbidden Love ✔ Temporary Affair ✔ Reformed Rake
