Book Description
Widowed, penniless Sabrina Whitcomb isn't looking for romance. What she needs is a husband, and she knows well enough that romance and matrimony aren't always compatible. While providing for her twins and the child she now carries is paramount, wedding a virtual stranger--even a wealthy one, like Gideon St. Goddard, Duke of Stanthorpe--is no light matter. Sabrina knows the friend who arranged the union would not promise her to a true scoundrel, but one look at her future husband convinces her that he is a shameless rogue. A shockingly handsome and desirable one, at that. Why has he agreed to marry her? When Gideon flashes that wicked, seductive smile, the reason hardly matters, but the chance that he'll steal her heart becomes all too real...
From the Author
Join me for the first in The Rogues Club Series about a group of irresistible rogues, their spunky brides, and their marriages of sheer inconvenience. Expect a few eccentric characters, a precocious child or two, villains, calamity, romance and laughter, even a few tears. Most of all, enjoy!
In AN UNDENIABLE ROGUE, Sabrina Whitcomb sells herself in marriage to a rogue undeniable, wicked as sin, and rife with promise. Having purchased his reluctant bride, can Gideon St. Goddard, Duke of Stanthorpe, seduce her into love? Will Sabrina see beyond her rogue bridegrooms armor to his yearning heart?
From the Inside Flap
Sabrina groaned and accepted his supportive embrace. This new husband of hers was not the doddering old duke on canvas, but a flesh-and-blood man, young, vibrant, and alive. A rare one who stirred her senses and became awed by the movement of her unborn child.
What had she gotten herself into?
In an effort to re-create the extraordinary connection she had experienced the night before, when he touched her burgeoning belly, Sabrina stepped back, took her husband's big, capable hands, and placed them flat against her child's cocoon. "Will you become his first pony?"
When Gideon's haughty, aristocratic features softened, so, too, did the brittle wall Sabrina kept erected around her oft-pummeled heart.
"Of course," he said with so easy a smile, Sabrina fancied they could both imagine the resultant giggles, and suddenly she dared hope that her bargain of a marriage might not be so unpleasant an arrangement after all.
