Título: The Duke's Bartered Mistress
Autor: Caroline Lee
Sinopse: The whispers say he's a demon, but now he owns her... It is vital Lady Georgia Stoughton finds a way to pay her father's debt, but the cursed man who owns it refuses her money. So when she offers herself in repayment, the devil with the body of an angel calls her bluff...and signs the contract. Now she belongs to him, body and soul, until the last hour of December. Lord Edymion, Demon Hayle, wants two things in his life: seclusion, and revenge on the man who scarred him so horribly, making him unfit for Society. The first is going perfectly fine until a brash beauty pushes her way into his life, and before he can kick her out the door, offers the second. Lady Georgia's father is the key to his revenge, but this contract is so much sweeter: the use of Georgia's body, whenever and however he wants her, for the next month. It's going to be a Hayle of a holiday season. Georgia can't regret the arrangement that made her Demon's, not when she has free run of his castle, library, and neglected rose garden. And as she becomes addicted to the pleasure he shows her in the bedroom (and study, and conservatory, and once up against the wall in the linen closet), she begins to doubt her own plans. Then comes the letter with the announcement Demon has just unexpectedly become a duke. Well, blast. Is he ready for London? It's up to Georgia now, but as the end of December looms nearer, Demon's revenge is slipping from his grasp... Warning: There's a lot of spicy bits...and hilarious servants, a stubborn cat, more gardening than you'd expect in December, and still more spicy bits. Get ready to laugh out loud with another Caroline Lee HistRomCom!
