A Secret Affair

Hannah Reid, Duchess of Dunbarton, is newly widowed and determined to take a lover — Constantine Huxtable, cousin to the Earl of Merton and the most notorious sensualist in the ton. Denied the earldom by his illegitimacy, Constantine has made a habit of brief affairs with widows, and Hannah seems like another. But as their affair unfolds, they begin uncovering the secrets and vulnerabilities behind each other's reputations, and what starts as a game becomes something far deeper. Balogh's final entry in the Huxtable family saga.
