There, he blighted his shy sister Meg's chances for happiness by arrogantly forbidding her to see the neighboring lord she longed for, and dashed his brother Virgil's dreams of love by using his wealth and title to claim the incomparably lovely and insatiably ambitious Lady Lucretia Coulter as his own bride-to-be. But if the duke made it so effortlessly easy for Celeste to make up her mind to despise him, he also made it devilishly difficult to convince her heart....
