Wicked Husbands #2

Scarlett Scott

Book two in the Wicked Husbands series.

Abandoned by her husband on their wedding night, Maggie, the Marchioness of Sandhurst, longs for a raging passion to free her from her lonely life. A devastatingly handsome stranger at a masque ball promises just the sort of distraction she craves. But after a night of scorching lovemaking, she wakes to find him gone.

Simon, the Marquis of Sandhurst, is horrified to discover the masked siren he bedded is his wife, a woman he vowed to never touch. He shouldn’t want Maggie, but can’t resist her now that she’s been in his arms.

As the truth unravels, husband and wife are estranged no longer, spending their days and nights exploring the desire burning hot between them. But when Simon’s past comes back to haunt them both, their newfound happiness could be forever dashed.

An Exclusive Excerpt from Her Lovestruck Lord:

She wanted him still. Wanted him more than she wanted to write another poem or take another dance in the rain. Wanted him more than anything, even after all that had transpired between them. Dear heavens. She had to stop the madness before she lost her head and her heart both.

She turned her face away, breaking the seemingly endless kiss. When she would have disentangled herself from his embrace, he held her fast with the hand that still clung to her waist. He pressed his cheek to hers, his whiskers a not entirely unwanted abrasion on her skin. His nose sank into her hair just behind her ear as he inhaled deeply of her scent. She tried not to notice that he held her as if she were the last possession he had on earth.

“I need you,” he murmured into her ear, his breath hot, his lips grazing the delicate shell. “You haven’t any idea just how much.”

Maggie squeezed her eyes shut against the tears that threatened to fall. So many emotions coursed through her that she couldn’t make sense of what she felt, what she ought to be feeling. Her heart was decidedly at war with her mind. “I cannot do this,” she managed to say.

“You can.” The hand that had undone her coiffure slid to the nape of her neck, gently caressing. “I won’t lose you, not now.”

“You already have,” she argued, hating herself for saying the words, wishing she could recall them the moment they’d been spoken. But it was necessary, wasn’t it? She had to force him away, keep him at a safe distance while she rediscovered her defenses.
