He commissions lessons from a well known libertine, Lord Howe who undertakes his education. Suddenly, Luc is the most popular man in London, a devilish rake setting the girl's pulses racing, Olympia's included...

Can Olympia convince her best friend that she made a mistake and that he was delightful, just as he was? Or will she herself fall for his charms and ruin their friendship forever? One thing is certain... she has helped to create the perfect rake and now she must deal with the consequences...
