Jessica Lady Colyton has no intention of being a wicked widow and no time for rogues. Her father, her brothers and her husband were rogues enough for a lifetime. However, she has joined the Wicked Widows League, seeking help after her husbands will proves to be just one more blow from a controlling and manipulative man.
It has been a difficult year. When her new friends organise a holiday in a country cottage for her, she blesses them—right up until she finds a naked rogue in her bed.
Martin Lord Tavistock is no rogue, unlike his father before him. The mans early death in sordid circumstances brought him a title and a barrow-load of responsibilities. His uncles strict upbringing has given him little taste for pleasure and no skill in making friends.
He wants only to go home to Yorkshire, shunning the Christmas house party to which his matchmaking sister has invited him, and the beauties she has undoubtedly lined up to tempt him. When he wakes up in a strange ladys bed, naked, tied down, and clueless as to how he arrived at her cottage, he wants no part in whatever plot is underway.
Trapped by a snowstorm, he and his furious hostess must form a reluctant alliance to survive, and that will be the end of their acquaintance. Wont it?
Except that Martin doesnt want to fight his attraction to Jessica, and she hopes that his promises of pleasure will prove that her experiences with Colton were not her fault. They can walk away after three days and nights of lovemaking. But will they want to?
