American heiress Piety Grey is on the run. Suddenly in London and facing the renovation of a crumbling townhouse, she�s determined to make a new life for herself�anything is better than returning to New York City where a cruel mother and horrid betrothal await her. The last thing she needs is a dark, tempting earl inciting her at every turn�
Trevor Rheese, the Earl of Falcondale, isn�t interested in being a good neighbor. After fifteen years of familial obligation, he�s finally free. But when the disarmingly beautiful Piety bursts through his wall�and into his life�his newfound freedom is threatened�even as his curiosity is piqued.
Once Piety�s family arrives in London, Falcondale suddenly finds himself in the midst of a mock courtship to protect the seductive woman who�s turned his world upside down. It�s all for show�or at least it should be. But if Falcondale isn�t careful, he may find a very real happily ever after with the woman of his dreams�
