    On A Wicked Dawn
    by Stephanie Laurens

    "Marrying you will be entirely my pleasure."

    Amelia Cynster hears these words from the handsome, enigmatic sixth Viscount Calverton and is stunned. It's near dawn and she's risked scandal by lying in wait for him just outside his London house. But he agrees to her outrageous marriage proposal - just prior to passing out at her feet. Amelia's torn between astounded relief and indignant affront, then decides she doesn't care. She has always loved him - no other man will do - and, frankly, she's tired of waiting.

    Sometimes a young lady needs to take matters into her own hands.

    But matters of the heart are never that simple. The first hitch in Amelia's plans comes when he refuses to agree to a hasty wedding - insists on properly wooing her...in public and in private. Soon, she longs for those moments away from the watchful gaze of the ton in which she can learn all about seduction from a master. But unbeknown to Amelia, he has a very good reason for wooing her.

    Every wicked gentleman has his price.
