USA Today bestselling author Loretta Chase continues her Difficult Dukes series with this delightful spin on Shakespeare's classic, The Taming of the Shrew.

This time, who’s taming whom…


Cassandra Pomfret holds strong opinions she isn’t shy
about voicing. But her extremely plain speaking has caused an uproar, and her exasperated
father, hoping a husband will rein her in, has ruled that her beloved sister
can’t marry until Cassandra does.


 

Now, thanks to a certain wild-living nobleman, the
last shreds of Cassandra’s reputation are about to disintegrate, taking her
sister’s future and her family’s good name along with them.


 

The Duke of Ashmont’s looks make women swoon. His character
flaws are beyond counting. He’s lost a perfectly good bride through his own
carelessness. He nearly killed one of his two best friends. Still, troublemaker
that he is, he knows that damaging a lady’s good name isn’t sporting.


 

The only way to right the wrong is to marry her…and
hope she doesn’t smother him in his sleep on their wedding night.
