A case of mistaken identity leads to true love in this steamy Regency romance of loyalty, regret, and revenge.

Richard Cameron, Earl of Mulgrave, makes a fateful mistake when he confuses Anne Paget for her sister Nicole. The beautiful artist is not, in fact, the adventuress who stole his nephew's heart. But she is everything Richard has ever wanted.

From the moment she sees the darkly handsome Earl, Anne Paget longs to paint him. But Anne doesn't realize that Richard believes she is her younger sister . . . until he unwittingly leads her into a compromising situation that threatens her reputation.

With her own ideas of honor—and dreams for the future, which do not include marriage—Anne refuses Richard's proposals. Yet as each day passes, she finds herself drawn to his gentle persistence . . . tempted by nights of reckless abandon . . . and enticed by the promise of a love that will last forever.</
