About this ebook

They call him many names, but Angelic isn't one of them . . .

Sebastian Ballister, the notorious Marquess of Dain, is big, bad, and dangerous to know. No respectable woman would have anything to do with the "Bane and Blight of the Ballisters"—and he wants nothing to do with respectable women. He's determined to continue doing what he does best—sin and sin again—and all that's going swimmingly, thank you . . . until the day a shop door opens and she walks in.

She's too intelligent to fall for the worst man in the world . . .

Jessica Trent is a determined young woman, and she's going to drag her imbecile brother off the road to ruin, no matter what it takes. If saving him—and with him, her family and future—means taking on the devil himself, she won't back down. The trouble is, the devil in question is so shockingly irresistible, and the person who needs the most saving is—herself!

Ratings and reviews

Yes this is no more than a book full of two baffons have sex in about every way possible. It came across to me as one of the worst books ever written and that it should not be shown to children which has already been given to as an english reading assignment for little 4th graders to discover what is to come later on in their poor little lives when they finally what the floppy stick is growing out of their "areas". This could only be a book of horrible sex and disclaimability. In conclusion this book sucked Always loving

Really enjoyed this book alot the main female character was what you hope her to be strong, confident, and actually smart. Although there is not a huge problem in the story it is still amazing.

Something fresh n funny as hell. I loved how jess dealt with sebastian. Especially how she acted when faced with possible ruin. Storming into that restaurant... Totally didnt see that coming. It was awesome.
