Michael needs a wife to produce an heir for his title. He and his valet, Gerard, have been involved in a relationship for 5 years. Gerard suggests Katherine because they have similar interests. Katherine accepts and they are married quickly. Michael has no idea what to do. Katherine does not know how to let Michael know what she needs plus she's attracted to Gerard. Gerard is attracted to her also. What are they to do?

I loved this story. It was intense as the three all have desires for each other but none of them can speak about it at first. Finally, they do begin communicating. Michael's cousin is a jerk. He tries to break them apart. I liked that Michael shows his determination to keep his "family" together. I also enjoyed the cousin getting his comeuppance. The cousin, while a villain, does provide the catalyst for the three of them to decide what is important to them. I liked their decision.

I hope there will be more in this series. But, in the meantime, I will be reading other books by Nicola Davidson. She's become a favorite of mine. ( )
