Opis

Young Jules Westbrook, countess of Somerset, falls head over heels for her older brother Daniel's best friend. Jules' crush on Ethan Ashleigh, five years her senior, causes extreme tension between the friends. A surprise ambush on Ethan's home by the Scottish rogue, Sir Kilger, leaves Ethan's father dead and brother missing. When Daniel and Ethan's plan to rescue Hunt Ashleigh unravels, Daniel ends up dead at the hands of his best friend. Upon Ethan's return to Westbrook House with Daniel's dead body, Jules' world disintegrates and her childhood love turns quickly to unabated hatred for Ethan Ashleigh, who, with the death of his father and brother, now holds the title of duke of Rocksavage. Five years later, Ethan returns, hardened from war with the Scots as well as his own self-loathing. He sets his sights on his dead best friend's little sister, who has turned into a ravenous beauty with the mature soul of a warrior. Jules vows revenge upon the duke, who, loving a challenge, forces Jules into an unholy marriage with him that sets them both on a roller coaster of hatred, love, betrayal, fear, and finally a resolution so surprising, Ethan nor Jules saw it coming.
