"“Don't cry, Emma,” he said.   

“I'm not crying,” she murmured, attempting to wipe away the tears.   

“Thank goodness for that,” he replied, keeping his tone light. “ 'Pon my word, Emma, I hope you are worth five thousand pounds.”   

The infamous Lord Ragsdale is as rich as sin, as sinful as he is rich, and as heartless as he is handsome. But after he saves Emma from a life of indentured servitude and shame, Emma decides that it is her personal duty to save him from his wicked ways.   

Step one - stop his drinking, his gaming, and his wild revelry.   

Step two - make him break up with his mistress, the superbly sensual Fae Moullé, and transform him into a suitable suitor for the ideal wife that prim and proper Lady Clarissa Partridge would be.   

Step three - don't fall in love with him.   

Best-selling author Carla Kelly proves once again that love, transformation, and spontaneity are the best ingredients for an exquisite romance.
