A Shocking Delight by Jo Beverley
From New York Times bestselling author Jo Beverley comes a captivating Regency romance in which a lady must risk all to win the heart of an infamous Earl.Lucinda Potter, daughter of a wealthy merchant, is more interested in trade than in the men after her dowry. When forced to have a London season, Lucy sets out to enjoy herself rather than to find a husband. But once she meets the notorious Earl of Wyvern, her resolve weakens, and when they kiss, it dissolves--even though her instincts warn he's dangerous.
Wyvern has a dark secret, which means he must win a rich bride. Lucy seems ideal--not for her beauty and her lively charm, but because at first meeting she seems unlikely to realize the truth.
As he comes to really know her with each intoxicating kiss, Wyvern realizes she's too clever and honest by far. Marrying Lucy would mean living a lie with the woman he has come to love.
Jo Beverley was the New York Times bestselling author of the Rogue series, including Too Dangerous for a Lady, A Shocking Delight, and Lady Beware, as well as numerous other romance novels. Widely regarded as one of the most talented romance writers today, she was a five-time winner of Romance Writers of America's cherished RITA Award and one of only a handful of members of the RWA Hall of Fame. She also twice received the Romantic Times Career Achievement Award. She had two grown sons and lived with her husband in England. Jo Beverley passed away in May 2016.
