Portia is the friend of Ava who is the heroine from book 1.  She hasn't been living an easy life since she has to take care of her mother who is sick and she has a brother who doesn't care about helping.  While talking to Ava, they learned that Ava's brother, Earl of Windbury, was seen at the Donville Masquerade.  Being the good friend that she is, Portia decides to go to the Masquerade and find the Earl.  Instead she discover something more erotic and also runs into Marquis Miles Weatherfield.Marquis Miles Weatherfield made an appearance in one of Jess's previous book, An Introduction to Pleasure.  I love his character in there because she was a gentleman with the heroine.  In this book, I love him even more.  He chooses to marry Portia after they are caught in a compromising position by her brother.  But he also takes care of her mother as well.  The passion that both Portia and Miles have gets even hotter as they both begin to fall for each other even though Miles promise to not fall in love.  There are appearances from Ava and Christian (book 1 H/H) and I was hoping for a reappearances of Viscount Andrew Callis from AITP since he and Miles are friend.  Even so, I love this story.  I just can't wait for Liam's story next!
