When her mother decides to marry her with the wicked Earl of Gillingham, the fiery Grace Ayles is desperate... Until she realises that the key to her ultimate freedom may be an utter rake, named Nathaniel Forbes. However, beggars should not be choosers, so Grace asks him to pretend to court her and they soon hatch a plan to convince everyone they are deeply in love, including themselves.

What if their pretend romance proves to be more real than even she dares to think?

Ben Forbes, Earl of Boston, is the polar opposite of his identical twin, Nathaniel, who is bedding women left and right. When he ends up having to meet two women at once, Ben reluctantly agrees with his crazy scheme to impersonate him.

When he begins to drown in his lies, will he dare to tell the truth to the alluring woman who has shamelessly started falling for?

With every sinful kiss sparking hotter desire, Grace and Ben realise that their courting becomes the most reckless adventure of all. However, things take a turn for the unexpected when Grace finds out Ben's true identity... Is it possible for lust to persist if it was built on a lie? Or will their budding romance be destroyed once and for all by a shocking revelation?
