The good girl's guide to rakes
When Kieran Ransome's latest antics result in a massive scandal, his father issues an ultimatum: find a respectable wife or inherit nothing. But as one of London's most inveterate scoundrels, Kieran doesn't know any ladies who fit the bill. Or does he? Celeste Kilburn is a society darling. But keeping a spotless reputation leaves little room for adventure and she longs to escape her gilded cage. When Kieran--her older brother's best friend and an irresistibly attractive rogue--begs for her help, Celeste makes a deal: she'll introduce him to the right social circles if he'll show her the scandalous side of London. In between proper teas and garden parties, Kieran escorts Celeste--disguised as 'Salome'--to rowdy gaming hells, wild fêtes, and sensual art salons. As they spend more time together, their initial attraction builds to a desperate desire that neither can ignore. But when someone discovers their midnight exploits, Celeste's freedom and reputation are endangered, and Kieran must save the woman he loves...respectable or not.
