Upon a Wicked Time Re-Release

Jered Mandeville is impossibly arrogant. Tessa Astley is innocent and optimistic. Their marriage was a dream come true for Tessa, and matter of convenience for Jered.  Fate and Nature, however, conspired to change both their minds.

Jered doesn't want a soulmate, just a proper duchess hidden away on his country estate to beget heirs.  He certainly doesn't see a place for his sheltered bride in his decadent life in Regency London.  

So Tessa starts a campaign to win his heart by invading his home, his reckless adventures, and his bed.  And just perhaps she might be able to convince the cynical duke to feel again. 

There were, frankly, times when I had my doubts.
