Ruby in the Rough. Heiress, #4

A cold-hearted duke. A spirited heiress. One scandalous surrender. Lady Cordelia Ravensmere wanted a love match. Instead, she wed the enigmatic Duke of Walpole, a man who warned her he would never give his heart. But Christian North is nothing like she expected-aloof yet magnetic, cold yet burning with a passion he cannot hide. Every stolen glance, every brush of his hand, draws her deeper into a dangerous longing neither dares name.
Yet whispers of scandal stir, and when shadows of his past threaten their fragile bond, Cordelia must decide if she can trust the man who swore he could never love her. In the glittering ballrooms of the ton, desire can be ruinous and love a risk few dare to take. But Christian and Cordelia are already lost to temptation. and surrender may be their only salvation.
