But, carefully laid plans tend to go awry, especially when a tall, arrogant stranger appears and sends all her good sense flying with just a flash of his impish smile.

But, she is determined to come out on top in this game of wills, and if it takes a sexy wager to get the best of him, so be it. After all, Helen always wins.

He always plays by the rules, but her curves make him want to break them all…

All it took was one drink too many for Benedict, Viscount Seton, to admit his fascination with Miss Emmaline Winters. She was endearingly shy. She was enticingly curvy… She was the daughter of the portrait artist Benedict had hired. She should be safe in his home, but each hour spent in her company makes Benedict want to reach out and take what he wants for once, the consequences be damned.

Emmaline has been painting portraits for her father since his eyes started to fail years ago. Now, she is tasked with taking the likeness of possibly London's most serious Lord. But, why does her famously steady hand shake so when in his presence? Something about the Viscount affects her in ways she has never felt before, a heady thrill that makes her desire things that no proper Miss should want. Of course, a man such as he would never have eyes for a girl of her station, right?

In the wake of a drunken wager to seduce Miss Winters, Benedict tries to fight all his basest urges and do the right thing. Resist the idea at all costs… Breaking the rules only leads to broken hearts, especially when seduction is on the cards
