For the dark Marquess of Dane, no offer is to low or depraved, but when the offer comes from one of the ton’s noble daughters, Miss Christina Turnbow, Dane is willing to entertain the iniquitous possibilities. Dane is not impressed by the pretenses of silly ton debs, but Christina has a ghost of a chance. She bears an uncanny resemblance to his dead wife.

Christina, already ruined by a slight scandal, and with her family on the brink of financial disaster, determines that she has one thing left to sell. And Dane is the only man who can afford her price. Dane has a secret darkness and only Christina brings him light. She must balance the needs of her family with the strange needs of the only man who can help her. Can she endure Dane's dark world? Can she do what no other woman has done? Love him.
