But in order to carry off her plan, Arabella needs a duke… and she has just the rakish fellow in mind.The Duke of Whittsley has an ungentlemanly tendency to disregard the rules.

And that’s where he can’t quite resist Arabella’s distinctly outrageous plan: if he saves her family, she’ll give him an heir.Now the deal’s been struck. They have one year to achieve their goals and ten iron-clad rules to keep them on track. Like long, scorching kisses and ensuring they’re both exquisitely satisfied. And the only thing that could ruin their plan is the one thing they never planned on: love.
