The Forbidden Duchess (Rogues From War 1)

The first time Philip Rockfield, heir to the Duke of Crompton, saw Selene, his blood boiled with desire. He promised himself he'd take her, whatever the cost, however long it took. He soon discovered he could not have her. She was his uncle's widow.

Selene's father forced her to marry a man trice her age to save her brother's debts, causing her to lose her dreams of a love match. When first meeting the new duke, she felt drawn to him like moths to deadly fire. He represented an irrevocable danger to her body, to her heart. She had to keep distant from him at any price. If she only knew how…

Tempestuous passion wouldn't stop at anything, though, threatening to engulf them in its upsurge.
