Book Description
The lovely mathematics scholar Lydia Kellaway of London can solve the most complex puzzles. The one problem she can’t figure out? Managing the most infuriating man she’s ever met. Alexander Hall, Viscount Northwood, has purchased a one-of-a-kind locket from a pawnshop, unaware of the priceless sentiment it holds for Lydia. If he were a gentleman, he would simply return it to her. But Alexander is curious to see just how bold this brilliant beauty will be. What began as a playful wager quickly escalates. As their sizzling attraction grows, even Lydia can’t account for the feelings Alexander arouses in her with his smile or the fire he ignites with his touch. But when a dark family secret is suddenly thrown into the equation, it just might divide them forever. *An earlier edition of this book was published under the name Nina Rowan by Grand Central Publishing.
