A Summer to Surrender (The Tempting Tycoons, #1)

Phoebe Beaumont dreams of a life of independence. No one could tempt her to marry—except, perhaps, the compelling and mysterious Earl of Westmore. When her reputation is ruined by a scandal, Phoebe is sure she’ll never see the earl again . . . until an invitation arrives to attend a house party at his country estate.

Alex, Lord Westmore, is ruthlessly focused on building his railway empire. He needs a countess, but one who will help maintain his family’s status—the outspoken and bewitching Phoebe is decidedly not an option. Yet he can't deny how much he wants her, and Alex always gets what he wants.

With desire threatening to consume them both, Alex makes Phoebe a proposition she can’t resist—share one week of passion and make no demands of one another when it’s over. But once he gets the beguiling beauty in his arms, she finds her way into his heart. To keep her, he’ll have to risk everything.
