Love is worth a little scandal . . . Owen Hadley is a dashing rogue, and one of no particular fortune. Hence his need for a wealthy wife. Determined to succeed, he sets out to charm one at a house party and makes his move. But a left instead of a right leads him to the wrong lady’s bedchamber, namely the shrewish older sister of his intended paramour. This mistake casts him into a scandal of major proportions. Milly is ready to declare spinsterhood. If marriage means trading her freedom for a foppish husband, she’ll gladly remain single. But when London’s most notorious rogue mistakenly makes his way into her bedchamber, Milly finds herself unexpectedly and unwillingly at the altar. The more time Milly spends with her husband, the more she begins think the unwanted marriage is the best thing that ever happened to her. And Owen must convince Milly that each night with him will be more wonderful than the last. Will they be able to admit that a little scandal is worth the love of a lifetime?

A jagged edge of raw desire nicks the impenetrable armor around his heart. Charlotte MacQueen has been told since childhood to stay in school, live a normal life. Leave the family business—hunting down dragons—to her brothers. But tonight, she’s shed her chemist’s lab coat and infiltrated enemy lines to bag a dragon of her own. She never expected sexy, all-too-wicked Rurik Barinov to capture her, body and soul—the perfect weapon to use against her brothers. Or that she’d fall for the brave, battle-scarred dragon shifter who covets her heart like the most precious of jewels.
