About This Book
The Duke of Kylemore, 27, knows her as Soraya, London's most celebrated courtesan. Men fight duels to spend an hour in her company. And only he comes close to taming her. Flying in the face of society, he decides to make her his bride; then, she vanishes, seemingly into thin air. Dire circumstances have forced Verity Ashton, 28, to barter her innocence and change her name for the sake of her family.
