Publisher's Synopsis
1816 England.
Brandon St. Clair, the Earl of Vale, has never been one to follow the rules. Even though he must marry a wealthy heiress so that he can be rid of the pile of debt he inherited with his title, he can't stop thinking of another. Amelia Somerton is the daughter of a forger and is not a suitable wife. But that doesn't stop Brandon from making Amelia a different offer, the kind that breaks every rule of etiquette...
Sin runs in Amelia's family. And even though she now rubs elbows with the aristocracy, she knows the truth--she has the ability to forge priceless works of art. She'll never be seen as an acceptable wife, not that she wants to marry, anyway. So when the earl scandalously offers her the one thing she's always dreamed of, she can't help but take it. But what begins as a simple arrangement, soon escalates into much more, and as the heat between them sizzles, each encounter becomes a lesson in seduction...
