A word from her lips can bring him to his knees.
The Bourbon Boys Quartet, Book 1
Gaspard Toussaint is known throughout 1820 French society as the "molly comte", a foppish throw pillow of an aristocrat. But his entire life is a twisted mass of secrets and lies as a spy for the Crown. His final covert act will have him fleeing his broken country forever...but before he can escape, he needs the power and safety that only money can provide. And no one has more money than English heiress Claudia Pascale.
The only child of a wealthy tradesman, Claudia has continually failed to catch a husband—due in large part to her uncontrollable stutter. Spurned by a dashing French lieutenant and desperate to escape her parents' household, she joins forces with the seemingly harmless Gaspard to learn how to properly ensnare a spouse: through seduction.
All too soon, Gaspard's lessons in delicious domination and sinful submission make Claudia suspicious that he is not what everyone believes him to be. And Gaspard realizes his quest to possess her is becoming less about her dowry...and more about the woman herself.
Warning: Contains an aggressive Frenchman with extremely loose morals, a determined heiress who can't refuse a dare, and bedroom games where boundaries were made to be crossed.
