Eloisa James – författare

Lady Yasmin Régnier har ett rykte som föregår henne, bär vågade klänningar och flörtar hejdlöst med alla societetens män. Giles Renwick däremot är seriös, plikttrogen och har aldrig gjort sig till för en kvinna. Men när de två dansar aftonens första dans med varandra händer något mellan dem. Den lekfulla tillvaron övergår plötsligt i något helt annat - något mycket allvarligare och inte helt lämpligt.

Giles kan trots vad han har föresatt sig inte hålla sig borta från lady Yasmin. Men vad är det egentligen han dras till? Hon är otänkbar som både hustru och älskarinna. Och de kan absolut inte vara vänner eftersom de häftigt ogillar varandra! Så vad i himlens namn är det som får honom att be om hennes hand? Och vad ska han ta sig till om hon tackar ja?

"Inget får mig att rusa till bokhandeln lika snabbt som en ny roman av Eloisa James." Julia Quinn, författare

"Enastående känsla för språklig kvickhet … Yasmin är ren och skär läsglädje." Booklist

Deras vägar korsas och snart har de en överenskommelse som inte liknar någon annan. Jake kan inte låta bli att fascineras av Cleo och inser snart att hon har stulit hans hjärta.
