She had no idea what passion was,
Until she saw them...
Lady Alain needs a husband, and Lord Quintin Wyntor will do just fine.
She wants to offer him a mutual agreement of respect and independence—
As long as he never visits her bed to claim his marital rights.
She follows him to do just that but ends up with so much more.
Seeing him with a man, with Calder, changes everything she knows.
For better, and for worse.
Passion yet unknown to her is stirred. Desire never before experienced is ignited.
Even so—she never wants to touch or be touched by another.
Quinn doesn’t understand what she’s telling him and when his heart is shattered because his lover walks away he decides to explore his feelings for Celeste to ease his broken heart.
In one unchecked moment of passion a mutual need spins out of control and changes both of their lives forever.
Now a future for Quinn with Calder may be impossible.
Will Celeste give in to what Quinn wants for her or will she stand her ground, gain her own happiness, and help Quinn find another way?
