Bewitching Hearts — Valerie King

Will a Halloween ball turn a rake into a groom?

LOVE LEADS A LORD AND A LADY...

Lady Alexandria Staple has a secret: she must convince the man she thinks represents the worst of the ton--the conceited, flirtatious, and far too handsome Lord Launceston--to lend her his ancient castle for a masquerade ball. No one would believe her real reason: that she has agreed to help a star-crossed spirit return to her true home. The situation is desperate so Alexandra is wiling to surrender a kiss...if Launceston surrenders his haunted Cornwall estate for just one night.

...INTO A DANCE OF HEARTS

What she doesn't know is that Launceston has wagered with his friends that he can seduce her. What he doesn't know is he about to lose his heart. Now, as the eve of the ball approaches, Alexandra is entangled in a web of scandalous schemes and sweet caresses. Is she being swept toward ruin? Or will she discover a rake who has been struck by Cupid's arrow...and fallen head over heels--in love?!
