But one shockingly unguarded moment while confronted by Marcus's gloriously naked body catapults her headlong into a forbidden passion and threatens to undermine all her well-laid plans.Even if Marcus abandons his sweet ideal and surrenders to his growing desire for Clara, there's still one thing that could destroy their hopes forever...Each book in the Wayward in Wessex series is STANDALONE:* Distracting the Duke* Unmasking the Earl* Vanquishing the Viscount
