It was common gossip that there wasn't a woman alive safe from the seductive skills of Alec Monro, Earl of Dalgliesh.  On the other hand, there wasn't a woman alive who didn't secretly covet a dalliance with the audacious, disreputable, dangerously exciting lover.  After all, he was as handsome as a god, and his endowments were as legendary as his sexual stamina. That he was immeasurably wealthy only added to his charm. 
Zelda MacKenzie, a magnificent, flame-haired Scottish beauty, inspired whispers of her own.  She was rumored to be a witch--if only for the curious native jewels and unusual garb she'd brought home from her orchid-hunting expedition to Brazil.  That's not to say she wasn't bewitching.  On the contrary..

But Zelda made it quite clear to the earl that she had no interest in libertines.

A challenge, he thought.
How lovely.
How irresistible.
