Con didn't know what to think of the woman he'd rescued beyond the fact that she was beautiful, desirable, and extremely hard to resist--particularly when he didn't especially want to resist. The question was, had she truly lost her memory? Or was she hiding deadly secrets behind that façade of innocence that would get him killed? And could he resist even if she was when he wanted her badly enough he could taste it? Mary Catherine didn't believe she could trust the sinfully handsome Con St. Claire, but he was shelter in the dangerous game someone was playing with her life and she couldn't bring herself to leave ? even though she feared she wouldn't be able to resist temptation when he offered to teach her passion such as she'd never known. Rating: Sensual/spicy Warning! This book takes place in pre-Civil War south on a plantation and may be offensive to some readers, since black slavery was a fact of life during this time period.
