Lady Caroline Dundas may have been raised in New Orleans, but she knew how to comport herself as well as any London miss. But proper manners were quite impossible to maintain in the face of Simon Renshaw's arrogance. How dare he declare her father an impostor who had returned to England only to grab the family fortune and title. Renshaw was clearly a charlatan ... and a rake as well! For he looked her up and down with an insulting familiarity that made her wish she were not such a lady after all.

Though she appeared to be nothing more than a cold-blooded adventuress, Simon could not help but wish himself in her clutches.
