Book, Wanted: Wife of good family, attractive but not too beautiful, calm, reasonable and mature..for marriage of convenience.Simon 'Devil' Dure is as cynical about love as spirited Charity Emerson is innocent of it. But she is certain she can meet his wifely expectations, and he is charmed and amused enough to believe her. Their ensuing engagement is as shocking as it is conspiratorial.With her crazy schemes and warm laughter, Charity tempts Simon - with more than her body. Her loving heart seduces him to unlock the shackles around his own.
