The Lady Needs a Rogue

Summary

A romantic charade . . . a dangerous mystery . . . an unexpected love . . .

She’s happily on the shelf . . .

Heiress MARY CATHERINE MASON has no need of a husband. Shipped off to London to hunt a title—and the pasty lord who would unfortunately come with it—the talented photographer has dodged every suitor her tycoon father has thrown at her. A minor scandal here, a costume malfunction there—Macie has outsmarted the heiress-hunters at every turn. But she doesn’t count on being saddled with a bodyguard, much less a rogue like her brother’s friend, Finn Caldwell. Years earlier, the young rake had been the bane of Macie’s girlish existence. Now, Finn is a man. Taller. More handsome. And even more infuriating. Striking a bargain with her tempting protector, Macie enlists Finn in a romantic charade—surely a besotted bodyguard would deter the stuffy nobles hungry for a taste of her father’s fortune. But when a mysterious threat forces them together, Macie realizes Finn might just be the rogue her secretly tender heart craves.

Her rogue and protector . . .

FINN CALDWELL had one job—seal a crucial business deal with an old friend. But now, the bargain rides on Finn’s ability to keep his friend’s sister out of trouble, a feat easier said than done. Macie attracts wolves in gentleman’s clothing and stumbles upon danger while toting her camera through the city. Macie’s unlike any woman he’s ever known—as clever and independent as she is beautiful, she challenges and intrigues him like no other. He wants her in his arms. In his bed. In his heart. But Macie is off-limits—especially to a rogue like him. Until she’s caught up in a perilous mystery, and Finn must put everything on the line to protect her.

Can he prove he’s the man she wants . . . the man she needs? Not for one night, but for the rest of their lives.
