About the book
When her elder brother lost a fortune to the wicked Earl of Gorleston, it was up to Minerva Linwood to save their home. She devised a reckless plan -- but she was unprepared for what was to come. Imprisoned with the notorious Earl in a gloomy dungeon, she was doomed to share the handsome nobleman's fatal punishment for his immoral pleasures... Yet even the Devil is not as bad as he is painted -- for the bold Minerva was to trade cold stone walls for the silken fetters of Love's most cherished vows....
