Can he do it? Can he give his body to a man who offers pleasure…and pain?When he discovers a thief in his bedchamber, Duncan of Ravenswood is torn between anger and lust. Despite his instant sexual response to the little thief, Duncan cannot allow such impertinence to go unpunished. And he has just the punishment in mind.
