But life-in the way of the dashing Bex Brantwood-has something else in store for Lucy... Upon meeting Bex, the duke's cousin, Lucy offers herself up to him. But Bex is no family man looking for a governess. And Lucy is not exactly mistress material. Still, the misunderstanding ends in a kiss neither can forget . . . Bex finds the proper vicar's daughter and her most improper proposal endlessly amusing-and attractive. But, saddled with debt, he's in no position to keep a woman, much less marry one, which is what a woman like Lucy deserves. Little does he know that even with her reputation at stake, Lucy will take the biggest gamble of her life by following her heart-straight into his arms . . .
