He is a duke who thrives on a challenge.
She is a woman who refuses to be tamed.
Together, they will discover that the only thing more dangerous than their rivalry is their desire.
Alistair Rutley, the Duke of Tunstall, has never met a woman as infuriating as Miss Verity Baxter, his childhood neighbor and sworn enemy.
Their battles are legendary in the ton, but when Verity’s brother asks Alistair to find her a husband because he can no longer support her, the duke cannot refuse.
Verity will only agree if he finds a love match for himself, setting the stage for a wager neither intends to lose.
Forced to endure the London Season together, from glittering ballrooms to crowded carriages, every glance, every heated word, and every stolen touch sparks a passion neither can resist.
Pride, rivalry, and desire collide, and soon Alistair and Verity must decide what is more dangerous—their hearts or the games they play.
