Full Synopsis
Gavin Corey, the Earl of Thornbrook, has shed his rakish ways in the hope of winning Lady Louisa's heart, but neither she nor her parents consider him a suitable match. He convinces her to join forces with him to locate a missing family treasure by proposing a wager: if he finds the jewels, Lady Louisa must allow him to court her, but if she prevails, he must reveal the secret he's keeping from her.

Lady Louisa Adair might be the most sought after lady on the marriage mart, but she values her independence above all else and has no interest in giving up her inheritance to marry. As she spends more time with the charming earl, however, she comes to wonder if he's worth risking her inheritance and her family's disapproval . . . until she's confronted with the scandal from his past.

Contains mature themes.
