But her determination to bring the rogue to justice hasn''t waned—until Morgan''s twin brother, Sebastian, arrives with some shocking news: Juliet''s mysterious paramour has disappeared.

Sebastian, Lord Templemore, dares not tell Juliet the truth: he is the man she seeks—it is his kiss she yearns for. Confessing to the abduction would bring devastating scandal upon them both. But how can he persuade her to forsake her dedicated pursuit of her dream lover, when all he dreams of is holding her in his arms again?
