Book Description:
With her family in dire straits, Olivia Hopkins reluctantly agrees to seek a marriage proposal from the aging Earl of Salisbury. But the plan goes awry when she finds an erotic volume in the earl's library. The book sets Olivia's body on fire. She simply cannot put it down-until she is caught red-handed by the Earl's devilishly handsome son-a man who quickens her pulse and stirs her imagination with thoughts she's never dared entertain...

Philip Paxton can't believe his good luck. Catching Olivia with the scandalous volume offers a superb chance to humiliate the father he despises. Using the book as bait, Philip lures Olivia into an electrifying affair that explodes into unbridled lessons of passion. Philip never expects to become enamored with his ravishing pupil. But what begins as a rakish scheme soon becomes a genuine affair of the heart-one that Philip will protect at any cost...

This is the first one by her that I've read, but it was good enough that I'll keep my eye out for more. Good use of plots and subplots to keep the book interesting.

This book is related to Holt's other novel, More Than Seduction. The main male characters in this book are brother & father to the main female character in MTS.

characters: Olivia Hopkins & Phillip Paxton.
Olivia must marry Early of Salisbury to ensure her family's survival, but she is enchanted by Phillip, the earl's illigitimate son.

Cheryl Holt weaves hot historical tales, and this one is a great read. I'm not a fan of two many subplots featuring additional characters, but in this case, they come together beatifully.
