The game is on, and she intends to fight dirty. But then again, so does he...

Duke Dillon Viscount Leigh has secrets. The fact that his estate is nearly broke is merely one of them. So, he needs to marry an heiress and fast. The house party would've been the perfect place to find one, too-if only a certain noisy, stubborn, and entirely too beautiful miss hadn't made it her mission to thwart him.

Well, if he thinks he's going to marry an heiress for nothing more than her deep pockets, he's in for a rude awakening, because Isla will not let him get away with such cruelty. And she'll enjoy every minute she spends ruining his not-so-noble intentions.

But when a kiss as passionate as it is untimely brings their game of cat and mouse to a fiery tipping point, Duke is forced to offer marriage to the last woman he ever expected-Isla. Is happily ever after even an option for two sworn enemies? Duke and Isla are about to find out...
