Rumor has it that the Earl of Deben, the most notorious rake in London and in need of an heir, has set aside his penchant for married mistresses and turned his skilled hand to seducing innocents!

1. One touch of his lips and he'll ruin her for every other man.
2. One glide of his skillful fingers to the neckline of her dress will leave her molten in his arms.
3. And if even one in a thousand rumors is true, it's enough for her to know she can never, ever trust a rake….From the blurb to Never Trust a Rake, by Annie Burrows
Golly. He doesn't look the type to me.
