About the book
Beautiful Georgina Bennett was a widow and quite content to remain that way. Though still young in years, she had tasted all she wanted of marriage with the late Duke of Ware. But now her father was demanding she wed yet another elderly aristocrat -- and Georgina frantically fled the London marriage mart. Safety, though, was not what she found. What she discovered when she met Major Jack Hampton was the danger of her own desires. For this heartbreakingly handsome, infuriatingly arrogant gentleman made it shockingly clear that he did not want her as a wife... but he most definitely wanted her as a woman.
