Reckless Liaisons

by Kayleigh Jamison

Was she a second chance at love- or his golden opportunity for revenge? Sebastian Cade, reclusive Duke of Rutland, has gone to great lengths to withdraw from the London society he's come to despise. Still reeling from betrayal and tragedy, he finds himself powerfully attracted to his lovely new raven-haired ward - so much so that he begins to question the last five years of his life. When Julia Deveraux awakens in the Duke's rose garden, the memories flood back. A betrothal she detests. The great black horse stolen from her father. Her near escape ... Now under Sebastian's care, she sees the rumors of his disfigurement are far from true. But will her secret connection to his sworn enemy tear them apart before love brings them together?

I read this as a first read giveaway and loved it. It's not something I would have picked up in a bookstore. It's about a debutant who's escaping from London to avoid having to marry a Duke of her father's choosing. Only to be rescued by a reclusive Duke with problems of his own. It's a wonderful love story!!
