Won by the Viscount — Suzanna Medeiros

A reckless wager. A scandalous bargain. A love neither of them saw coming.I never should have accepted the baron's wager. When he offered up a rare family jewel instead of coin, I expected an heirloom and not his sister, Miss Caroline Edwards, the diamond of the Season.Honor demanded I walk away. Temptation made me stay.Caroline is everything a gentleman should avoid-clever, independent, and entirely too irresistible. Desperate to escape an unwanted betrothal, she proposes a shocking bargain: if I pretend to court her, we can destroy her flawless reputation and set her free.It should have been a harmless charade. But the more time I spend with Caroline-the stolen waltzes, the whispered laughter, the dangerous heat between us-the harder it becomes to remember which parts are pretend.Now the stakes are far higher than I ever intended. Because the only thing more perilous than winning her... is losing her.Viscount Kendrick
