A lady must have money and an army of her own if she is to win a revolution—but first, she must pit her wits against the wiles of an irresistible rogue bent on wrecking her plans…and her heart.
 
Lady Lucie is fuming. She and her band of Oxford suffragists have finally scraped together enough capital to control one of London’s major publishing houses, with one purpose: to use it in a coup against Parliament. But who could have predicted that the one person standing between her and success is her old nemesis and London’s undisputed lord of sin, Lord Ballentine? Or that he would be willing to hand over the reins for an outrageous price—a night in her bed.
 
Lucie tempts Tristan like no other woman, burning him up with her fierceness and determination every time they clash. But as their battle of wills and words fans the flames of long-smoldering devotion, the silver-tongued seducer runs the risk of becoming caught in his own snare.
 
As Lucie tries to out-maneuver Tristan in the boardroom and the bedchamber, she soon discovers there’s truth in what the poets say: all is fair in love and war…

"Rich with subplot, historical detail and beautifully descriptive writing that keeps the pages turning until the delightfully unconventional happy ending."—NPR

Goodreads review by Yun on August 13, 2024

I've been dying to get my hands on this, Dunmore's sophomore book, ever since I read her first book earlier this year. I loved that one so much that I couldn't put it down, even while walking, which led to a small accident and a permanent scar. Nope, I'm not kidding. So it is with great anticipation......more

Goodreads review by chan ☆ on January 16, 2024

enjoyed this one quite a bit more than the first. the hero was a little less of a misogynist prick. that being said. why the hellllll was this so long? on the one hand, i appreciate the relationship development. it felt genuine and i liked the connection these two shared. but the first 40% of this b......more

Goodreads review by Anne on March 01, 2025

5 stars. This is what I was hoping for from the 1st book in the series. You have a true feminist bucking convention and trying to make social changes. Her main focus is the Married Women's Property Act, an amendment that would allow a married woman to remain autonomous instead of being wholly absorbe......more
