Releasing March 31st, 2015
Avon
As a young girl, Emilia Gwendolyn Carrington told the annoying future Duke of Pindar that she would marry any man in the world before him-so years later she is horrified to realize that she has nowhere else to turn.
Evander Septimus Brody has his own reasons for agreeing to Mia’s audacious proposal, but there’s one thing he won’t give his inconvenient wife: himself.
Instead, he offers Mia a devil’s bargain… he will spend four nights a year with her. Four nights, and nothing more. And those only when she begs for them.
Which Mia will never do.
Now Vander faces the most crucial challenge of his life: he must seduce his own wife in order to win her heart-and no matter what it takes, this is the one battle he can’t afford to lose.

One
poem that landed in the wrong hands had the heart of young Mia Carrington being
shred into pieces. It was supposed to be a secret, no one is supposed to see
it, most especially, Vander Brody. To her mortification, it was him and his
friends who have read it and made fun of it. She told the future Duke of Pindar
that she would never, ever marry him even if he was the last man on earth.
Never,
ever say something with finality because you may end up eating your words.
Desperation had brought Mia back to his Grace, blackmailing him into marrying
her to save her and her nephew. But his Grace has other plans in mind.
Marriage
and wife was not in his plans. That’s why, much to his surprise, Mia proposed. Instead
of turning her down, which was he was supposed to do, he offered her a bargain:
he will spend four nights annually with him. Just four nights – that’s it. And
only when she really, really begs for it. Which of course Mia will never do.
But
will four nights be enough for him?
Despite
his early concept on marriage and wife, he found himself enamored of the person
who blackmailed him into marriage. Can he seduce his own wife, and make her beg
for more than four nights with him?
Desperation
makes people do crazy things, but as what I have always said – there is always
a reason for everything, and everything will fall into its proper place on its
own time. He may have broken her heart, and his heart may not belong to her
during the start of the marriage – but he can’t help but fall in love with his
duchess. He was not good in speaking his feelings, and he may do something out
of character that keeps on catching Mia off-guard, but he was trying.
Mia,
on the other hand, will not settle for anything less. Just this once, out of
desperation. She needs this marriage, but she will not stay in it without love.
So, despite the fact she was falling in love, she will have to let him go
because there was no way she was going to stay in a loveless marriage. She wanted
to have what her father has – no matter how unconventional and scandalous that
may have been – but it was love.
It’s
Eloisa James, and I expected nothing less. Just like the rest of her novels, I finished
this in less than four nights, in one sitting actually: enjoying banters,
swooning over the romance, panting over those steamy scenes and cheering after
our interesting and complex characters. She made another page-turning novel you
won’t have the heart to down.
