""A lady does not smoke cheroot. She does not ride astride. She does not fence or attend duels. She does not fire a pistol, and she never gambles at a gentlemen's club." Lady Calpurnia Hartwell has always followed the rules, rules that have left her unmarried -- and more than a little unsatisfied. And so she's vowed to break the rules and live the life of pleasure she's been missing. But to dance ever dance, to steal a midnight kiss -- to do those things, Callie will need a willing patrner. Someone who knows everything about rule-breaking. Someone like Gabriel St. John, the Marquess of Ralston -- charming and devastatingly handsome, his wicked reputation matched only by his sinful smile. If she's not careful, she'll break the most important rule of all -- the one that says that pleasure-seekers should never fall hopelessly, depserately in love.." -- Back cover.
