<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>He was only supposed to keep an eye on his friend's sisterEnow he's about to lose his heart. In the second scintillating novel in Barnes' Regency series, a duke falls madly in love with his best friend's sister. Original.inal.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>He was only supposed to keep an eye on his friend's sister . . . now he's about to lose his heart . . .</em></strong></p><p>When Thomas Heathmore, Duke of Coventry, agrees to steer his friend's inexperienced younger sister through society, he doesn't expect the lady in question to be so infernally stubborn. Amelia Matthews seems to have little interest in balls or suitors at all. Instead, she intends to open a school, and against his better instincts, Thomas offers to help. Yet somewhere along the line, Amelia ceases to be a simple responsibility . . . and becomes an undeniable temptation.</p><p>Since her brother inherited a dukedom, Amelia's prospects have transformed. But though she's long been secretly infatuated with Thomas, she refuses to heed the arrogant aristocrat's advice. If only it were as easy to ignore his heated touch. And as Amelia soon learns, the <em>ton</em> is a minefield, where one moment's indiscretion can unleash a scandal--or entice her to surrender everything to the duke of her desire . . . </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"perfectly crafted... Appealing protagonists, immense emotional intensity, and a thread of suspense combine to make this a standout." --<em>Publishers Weekly</em> <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>"A charming sequel... Barnes creates early-18th-century characters that appeal to contemporary sensibilities without requiring strenuous suspension of disbelief. But this is still an entertainment--more Barbara Cartland than Elizabeth Gaskell--and there is real pleasure in seeing these characters joyfully united. Well-crafted characters and an inventive plot."--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br>
