About the book
Widowed Julia, Lady Winterset, has inherited a book that every gentleman in London seems to want. Harrison Landingham, Earl of Mountdale, can't let the obstinate Julia release the shameless memoir that could ruin his family's name, but the only way to stop her may be equally sordid, for his rivals are intent on seducing the captivating woman to acquire the book.
