Touch of a Scoundrel

By Mia Marlowe | Publisher: Kensington Books

About the book

It's a matter of honor, duty. . . and desire. . .

Griffin Nash, Earl of Devonwood, wants to believe that he's seducing Miss Emmaline Farnsworth out of protectiveness for his young brother. After all, if his brother is convinced that the tantalizing professor's daughter is unworthy of his trust, perhaps Teddy will lose all interest in such an inappropriate choice for his station.

But in truth, something else motivates Devonwood: a scintillating vision he's had of a future tryst with the lovely Emmaline. A vision too realistic to be doubted--and too scaldingly passionate to be denied.

Yet Emmaline is not as easily tempted as Devonwood might have hoped--nor is she actually in pursuit of a wealthy husband. No, the real reason for her visit to the manor is something much more shocking. . . though being enticed by a dashing earl may prove to be a most welcome by-product of her schemes. . .

\"A smart and sexy tale.\" --New York Times bestselling author Mary Jo Putney


\"Marlowe proves she has the ‘touch' for strong heroines, wickedly sexy heroes, and love scenes so hot they singe the pages.\" --USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Ashley

\"Sensuality, sexuality, passion and mystery blend into a wonderfully entertaining tale.\" --Romantic Times

\"Both historical and paranormal readers will love this crossover tale.\" --Publishers Weekly starred review
