Then Comes Seduction

Description

In the glittering, rule-bound world of Regency London, Jasper, Lord Montford, makes a reckless wager: he will seduce Katherine Huxtable—an unassailably virtuous country girl—before his reputation is ruined. What begins as a calculated conquest quickly turns into something far more dangerous, as Katherine’s strength of character challenges the very assumptions that drive his reputation. As their attraction deepens, both must confront the cost of desire, the power of first impressions, and the thin line between performance and genuine feeling. With Mary Balogh’s signature blend of emotional intensity and richly drawn social detail, this is a captivating tale of seduction, self-discovery, and the unexpected tenderness that can grow from a lie.
