The Lady and the Rogue

Carolina York has never been particularly good at following the rules. Born into wealth and position,she left stifling dictates and a stuffy exfiance behind for the wilds of africa. Now, a year later, she's come back to New Orleans determined to make her mark on the rarified world of antiquarian books with her shop, "Treasured Tales."

Tall, with dark eyes that could scorch steel and a knee-weakening amount of sex appeal, he's a man with a mission. Find a cure for his condition, and seduce the determined-to-be-proper Carolina York. Falling in love with her wasn't part of his plan. . .
