Deimos Briarwood is a rake, one of the best! He provides delightful experiences for all the ladies he meets. But like most Briarwood men, he is a man of honor too. So, when Miss Alice Mitchell finds herself in a distressing spot, he rashly offers to rescue her by marrying her. Much to his shock, she refuses. She has no desire to wed out of pity. But her determination to rise above her difficulties only increases his admiration of her. When she asks for his help in a very unexpected way, he fears he should say no. Rake though he might be, Deimos has no wish to accidentally hurt the young lady whose heart has already been bruised.

Miss Alice Mitchell’s spirits cannot be broken, not even by a horrible lord who shows his true colors before they wed. After a very narrow escape, Alice decides that she is ready to cast off her heretofore demure behavior and live a life that makes her truly happy. After all, her other sisters are wed now, and there’s nothing stopping her from doing as she wishes. And who better to do what she wishes with than Deimos Briarwood? Still, this gorgeous rake, who awakens her every desire, seems to think that he knows what is best for her. Can she show him what she actually wants and find a love bigger than any scandal, or will the rules of London catch up with them?
