Summary

The third shocking book in The Ladies Book of Pleasures series by USA Today Bestselling Historical Romance Author Jess Michaels 
The Ladies Book of Pleasures, now credited with two marriages and countless other affairs and liaisons, has Society all aflutter. The one person not benefiting from its scandalous advice? The author herself. From the safety of her anonymity, Lady Grace Hollis, Duchess of Jameswood, enjoys the blissful results of her handiwork-and pretends she does not miss the passionate proclivities she penned. But when her handsome editor begins making the rounds of Society parties, she wonders how long her secret will be safe.  
Connor Sheridan wants-needs-to know the answer to the one burning question on everyone's lips: the mystery writer's identity. And it's not just because their correspondence, delivered via untraceable couriers, has made him smile, frown, or imagine her engaged in erotic escapades-with him. Other letters have begun landing on his desk, letters written by a decidedly unfriendly hand. And though it may threaten her reputation, the safest place for her could very well be his arms. Whether she likes it or not.   
  
Length: Full-Length Novel 
Heat Level: Oh howdy!

To do so, she must walk a thin line. If she offends the government, she could be expelled from the country--or worse.

Disillusioned with the chaos in the world due to the Great Depression, he is impressed with the prosperity and order of German society.
