Defying the Duke
When her father died, Dinah Westfall was grateful to the owners of Tantalus, a scandal-rich gaming hell, for allowing her to continue to work as their bookkeeper in his place. Her sister and grandmother depend on her income, so she ignores the activities going on around her office. Until a drunken guest assaults her.
Her rescue by co-owner Jack Hill, Duke of Abingdon, comes jusy in time, and now Jack insists on escorting her everywhere she goes, and his hints at wanting more than a kiss are beginning to tantalize her. She will be no man’s mistress, not even a duke’s, and will do what it takes to defy his propositions.
