Love after love is impossible...isn't it?

Lady Audra never dreamed she could love again. Especially not when the man seeking her attention is a notorious rake. But when she convinces herself to enjoy a passionate fling, she's caught between choosing a comfortable future or a path that might ruin her heart for love. Permanently.

Lucas, the Duke of Riddenvile, doesn't plan to seduce Lady Audra. But somehow, after years of women throwing themselves at him, he finally feels compelled to chase one himself. If only he hadn't chosen the only woman in the world closed to love.

Can Lucas prove to Audra that he isn't the scoundrel of a rake everyone thinks he is? Will Audra finally open herself up to love for a second time?
