USA Today bestselling author Loretta Chase continues her Difficult Dukes series with this delightful spin on Shakespeare's classic, The Taming of the Shrew.

This time, whos taming whom

Cassandra Pomfret holds strong opinions she isnt shy
about voicing. But her extremely plain speaking has caused an uproar, and her exasperated
father, hoping a husband will rein her in, has ruled that her beloved sister
cant marry until Cassandra does.

Now, thanks to a certain wild-living nobleman, the
last shreds of Cassandras reputation are about to disintegrate, taking her
sisters future and her familys good name along with them.

The Duke of Ashmonts looks make women swoon. His character
flaws are beyond counting. Hes lost a perfectly good bride through his own
carelessness. He nearly killed one of his two best friends. Still, troublemaker
that he is, he knows that damaging a ladys good name isnt sporting.

The only way to right the wrong is to marry herand
hope she doesnt smother him in his sleep on their wedding night.
