Young, handsome, rich, full of life and experienced.ħ girls chosen amongst the best of the Ton – pretty and well- connected, invited to attend a 2 week house party at the family estate, all accompanied by their proper chaperones. Gabriel aided by their sister Rosalind concocts a plan to help Tristan choosing – cue to the most atrocious premise ever:

But being a Duke and all, he needs to think of heirs and the such and decides his younger brother should be the one getting married – never mind that the brother in question, Tristan is his name, is a self-centred womaniser who would rather be doing rakish things than getting a bride. Gabriel, plagued with memories of his unhappy mother whose marriage to his father was a failure, decides, as a principled guy, he shall never marry so that the he won’t subject his wife to his impossible perfectionism and make her miserable. The brooding, collected, perfectionist Gabriel Devine, Duke of Wolverest is searching for the perfect wife. I read it now, because I am trying to make a dent on my TBR pile! Why Did I Read The Book: I bought it a few months ago when Julia Quinn recommended it. He is nothing more than a slave to passion, and she will not be conquered by his caresses-and yet his wicked ways tempt her so. But Madelyn believes the brothers Devine to be nothing more than heartless rogues-especially Gabriel, whose rakish reputation precedes him. Her social-climbing stepmother would give anything to have Madelyn Haywood betrothed to a future duke. Inviting the ton’s most eligible ladies to an elegant ball, Gabriel is certain any one of them would be all too eager to become the next duchess and provide an heir-leaving Gabriel to continue his ecstatic pursuit of pleasure. But if he’s to remain a lifelong bachelor, that leaves only his younger brother to carry on the family name. To Gabriel Devine, Duke of Wolverest, the bonds of marriage are nothing more than shackles.
