The Bourne Matrimonial Agency has one rule: Never fall in love with the client. However, they never said anything about kissing a rake…
Briar Bourne’s matchmaking career could be summed up in two words—comic disaster. Unless she can learn about the irresistible forces that draw men and women together, her professional future looks rather bleak. But Briar has an intriguing plan—enlisting London’s most irredeemable rake to teach her everything he knows about attraction. Given his notorious reputation, it’s no surprise that Nicholas Blacklowe, the Earl of Edgemont, requests one thing in exchange for his tutelage. For every lesson, he wants a kiss in return. And what harm could there be in a simple kiss? After all, Briar would never fall for a scoundrel…
Nicholas has no romantic notions about love, and no intention of changing his ways. He’s only helping Briar so that she can find the perfect bride for his jilted cousin. Yet Briar is so clever, so curious, so candid—so blasted tempting—that soon, Nicholas can’t stop wondering what it might be like if he was irresistible to her.
Ten lessons. Ten kisses. And a million ways to fall hopelessly, scandalously in love.

Excerpt:
“I’d better stand or else I’ll end up on your lap.”
“I wouldn’t mind, love,” Nicholas crooned, patting the tops of his
thighs and earning a perturbed glare.
Even so, Briar was too intent on her goal and stood, settling her
cool, delicate hands on his face. The simple touch of her fingertips, soft and
uncertain, stirred a low flame of arousal.
“I thought your rule was ‘no hands.’ ”
“Hush. I am immersing myself in the full experience,” she whispered as
if afraid of breaking the spell. “Besides, it was my rule for you, not for me.
Now close your eyes, if you please.”
He complied, half humoring her and half curious to see if she would
balk and shy away. Yet she lingered, her warm, clean fragrance filling his
nostrils and making him think of fresh bed linens, sun-kissed and wind-beaten
into a decadent suppleness. He wanted to lie down with that scent, tumble with
it, bury himself inside of it. And all this was before he felt the sweet rush
of her breath over his lips.
