Publisher's Synopsis
Jasper Ashton, the Earl of Marshfield, has enjoyed notoriety as London's most rakish bachelor, and he's placing a wager on his ability to stay single. Too bad for him, clever and impossibly desirable Julia Sudbury shows up in his bedroom.
Like a shadow, Julia slips from Mayfair's ballrooms into the nobility's private chambers where nothing is more appealing than a spare piece of jewelry - easily pawned to help the city's countless poor. Earrings, necklaces, and cravat pins, oh my!
With Julia's bad behavior tarnishing his reputation in ways he'd never imagined, Jasper goes on the run to escape the brutal gossips shredding his family name. It's enough to make a cocky rake wish he were safely married! Who will tame whom?
