A reverse May/December romance with a strong, independent, older heroine pitted against a hero who might be younger but is as sexy, mature, powerful, and alpha as they come.
Quentin Blackwell, Earl of Devlyn, refused to marry a woman carrying another man's child. The price he paid for spurning the promiscuous youngest daughter of Baron Townsend was his fortune. Now, the baron's oldest daughter has come to him with an unexpected proposition. Devlyn seizes the chance for vengeance without hesitation. But the one thing Quentin never bargained on was how revenge could cost him the one thing he wants the most. Sophie’s love.
All her life, Sophie’s tried to earn her father’s love to no avail. Even her one chance for happiness was crushed beneath her father's tyrannical thumb when he convinced Sophie's only suitor to marry her youngest sister who'd gotten in a family way with the stable boy. Firmly on the shelf at forty-one, Sophie has grown accustomed to her fate as a spinster until she does something bold and daring. She never really expected the Devil of Devlyn to actually accept her rash proposal, and she certainly hadn't planned on falling in love with a younger man.
“…The sex scenes are scorching, but the love between her hero and heroine is better.” — 4 Stars - RTBOOKreviews
“Erotically crafted and sensually woven, this tale is interspersed with smoking hot love scenes and pithy dialogue between Devlyn and Sophia. Even as they circle each other like a couple of spitting cats, the desire between them sizzles, flourishes, and explodes..” ― Fallen Angel Reviews – Recommend Read
“…the attraction and chemistry between Quentin and Sophie is electric; the pages vibrate with it. From the very first page to the last, Ms. Burns keeps me on the edge of my seat devouring every word. Each encounter was ripe with tension and in some cases, explosive love scenes that were phenomenal to read.”— Romance Junkies – 5 Blue Ribbons
