Lucy Ashton had long ago given up her quest for true love. In the rarified society of Victorian England, Lucy plays the game - flirting, dancing, and dabbling in the newly fashionable spiritualism. Even marrying when - and who - she's supposed to. If the stuffy Duke of Sussex cannot spark the passion she craves, he can at least give her a family, a home of her own, and a place to belong. But when her polite marriage reveals a caring and sensual man, Lucy begins to wonder if she can indeed have it all.
But Lord Sussex is not the man the London ton has come to admire. And Lucy has some ghosts of her own, as well. Thus, when a blackmail scheme turns to threats of danger, the newfound peace of the Sussex marriage is cast upon the rocks. Passion has a price, Lucy learns. And not all ghosts stay buried.

"#2 in the series, Sussex has been in love with Lucy all this time and is trying to find a way to get her to notice him. Orpheus is still playing with her but it is not whom they thing it is. Learned more about the men's backgrounds. Really looking forward to book #3." — Barbara (4 out of 5 stars)

" I absolutely loved this story and wouldn't change a thing about it. I especially loved our hero Adrian. He stole my heart almost immediately! This book might be my comeback review because a feel a need to just gush and fangirl about Adrian & Lucy. "
" The Duke and Lucy's story was good too and fun "
" The heroine was whiny and the big "twist" was hinted at so heavily that it wasn't a surprise by the time it arrived. Would not read a second time. "
" I disliked the heroine in this one. Carried on way too much about her old, dead boyfriend. The first book in the series was good, so I'm going to stick with it. "
" Could not put it down! How the hell am I going to make it to July 2012 for the next installment! "
" I love her books I look forward to more! "
