A New York Times–bestselling author “delivers an irresistible love story with a bad-boy hero, an intrepid heroine and just the right amount of mystery” (RT Book Reviews).

When Diego Montalvo, a dashing Spanish magician, moves next door to Charlotte Harris’s School for Young Ladies, the beautiful and determined Lucy Seton sets out to save the threatened school. Diego has come to England to find the long-lost granddaughter of a Spanish Marques and return her to Spain, and he is convinced that Lucy is the woman he’s been looking for. Now, he just has to steal a look at her thigh to confirm a birthmark before whisking her away to Spain to collect his reward. But Diego never suspected his mission would include falling in love . . .

“Honor wars with desire as the sexual tension crackles across the pages of this witty, deliciously sensual, secret-laden story.” —Library Journal
