Rogue Awakening by Cara Maxwell

She is finally ready to feel the heat …

Lady Sylvia St. Vincent has more than done her duty. She married the elderly lord her parents arranged for her. She dutifully observed her period of mourning. At twenty-eight, she is finally free to live out her widowhood exactly how she sees fit.
And the first thing on her list? Take a lover who will make her toes curl.
Jasper thought he’d outgrown his childhood crush. He is a soldier. A successful businessman. Not to mention, a future duke. But when Sylvia steps into the room, he’s that doe-eyed boy again fumbling over his words. After a shared night of breathless passion, Jasper thinks all of his childhood dreams have come true.
Only to discover that the woman he loves is set on a dalliance. And nothing more.
But he’s determined to leave her out in the cold …
Sylvia is shocked by the unbridled desire Jasper has unleashed within her. But while he wishes for love, marriage, and commitment, she is determined to maintain her hard-won independence.
Who will win this battle of wills – the wicked widow or the newly awakened rogue?
