Duke of Enveigh (Seven Dukes of Sin #5)
by
BLURB:
He wants revenge. She wants freedom. Neither expected to want each other.
Archibald, Duke of Enveigh, is England’s most elegant predator. When his former friend the Duke of Eccess stole the woman Archibald wanted, he vowed revenge. The perfect weapon? Octavius’s innocent sister. Seduce her, ruin her, walk away.
Lady Mercy Everard has spent twenty years in French exile, studying stars and vowing never to marry for anything less than love. Now she’s thrust into London’s season as the talk of the ton: the Duke of Eccess’s long-lost sister, perfect prey for fortune hunters.
But Mercy isn’t like other debutantes. She sees through his practiced charm to the wounded man beneath. And she’s not afraid of him. When she challenges him to prove he’s more than another rake playing games, their secret alliance begins: he’ll teach her to survive the ton’s dangers.
As stolen moments in moonlit gardens turn into whispered confessions, Archibald realizes his fatal miscalculation—he’s falling for his mark.
When their forbidden attraction threatens to consume them both, only one choice remains: a desperate flight to Gretna Green with all of London in pursuit. But can a man who destroys everything he touches learn to love without destroying the woman who might save his soul?
Sometimes the deadliest sin is the one that redeems us.

REVIEW: 5*
Another sinful romance with scandal, beauty and entertaining banter. I really enjoyed the Duke of envy. Having the Duke of Vanity as a reject deadly sin really tickled me.
Archibald has fallen on desperate times. He’s walking a tight rope where he could loose everything at any moment. When Vanity offers him a wager, he puts his most prized possession on the line and agrees to do something hideous.
Mercy is protected by her brother (a previous deadly sin Duke) but she has dreams. She wants to use her knowledge to advance in the world.
Archibald is willing to help Mercy get what she wants but will the Prince of trust be more than either of them can afford?
