Revenge is a dish best served hot. Very. Hot!

Lady Millicent, the daughter of the Duke of Haddington, is shunned by the ton for her father's renown sadistic tastes. Weary and disillusioned, she's counting the days to her twenty-second birthday, when she'll receive her mother's inheritance and escape London's mockery and cruelty. Before that, though, she's tasked with the refurbishing of the garden's folie. The bricklayer in charge of it stirs her like no man ever did with his brawny and brooding looks. Torn between the need to protect her heart and the pull he exerts on her, the temptation to taste all those bunched muscles might prove too much to resist.
Martin Baker's fury at what the duke did to his sister when she was a maid at his house knows no limits. The work at the rapist's own townhouse affords him the chance to wreak revenge on the lecher. And why not use his haughty daughter to achieve his aim? He, however, is in danger of becoming a slave to her allure and the crave she awakens in him. But as he finally exacts his vengeance, he realises that he is the one going under. In ways he'd never imagined.
