The duke's five daughters have beauty, breeding and impeccable reputations. Or at least, they did, until two of them chose to follow their hearts.
Lady Olivia refuses to repeat her siblings' scandalous mistakes. Instead she will marry the lord her sister rejected and help with his good works. When he resists, she forms another plan: win his admiration by finding a bride for his illegitimate best friend. How difficult can it be to transform the rakish Edward Wolcott into a gentleman, ignore his virile good looks, and not kiss him in a moment of impulsive madness? Very difficult indeed.
Edward promised his ailing father he would marry well, and Olivia intends to smooth his way through London's ballrooms and parlours, while all his thoughts revolve around bedrooms and Olivia herself. Only a scoundrel would seduce the duke's most dutiful daughter, and only a truly reckless lady would risk everything to be in his arms.
