SummaryA legendary lover and spymaster, the darkly sensual Earl
of Wycliff eludes matrimony until a brush with death makes
him yearn for a son to carry on his name. The moment
Lucian spies the alluring Brynn Caldwell on a Cornish
beach, he knows he has found the woman he wants for his
bride. Brynn believes the notorious rake's fascination
with her is driven by a centuries old curse that dooms the
women of her family to tempt men -- only to lead those
they love to their death. Compelled by dire circumstances
to marry Lucian, Brynn surrenders her body to his caresses
but dares not give him her heart. Locked in a battle of
wills with his bewitching wife, Lucian begins to suspect
that Brynn is a traitor. Before long he finds himself
lured into a web of danger and betrayal, where the price
of winning his bride's elusive heart may be his own life.
