V nové sérii Sabriny Jeffries Hříšní ctitelé nachází americký malíř Jeremy Keane, vystavující nyní v Londýně, dokonalý model pro své nové, poněkud skandální dílo v Ivette Barlowové, sestře hraběte z Blakeborough, která souhlasí s tím stát mu modelem za podmínky, že on ji vezme do londýnského nevěstince, kde chce hledat ženu, jež může rozluštit jejich rodinné tajemství…
V napjatě očekávané druhé knize Sabriny Jeffries ze série Hříšní ctitelé se konvenční manželský svazek mezi Edwinem Barlowem, hrabětem z Blakeborough, a lady Clarissou Lindseyovou promění ve vášnivé milostné spojení. Když Edwin Barlow souhlasil, že pomůže impulzivní schovance svého nejlepšího přítele, lady Clarisse Lindseyové, věděl, že si koleduje o problémy. Hledá však ženu, kterou by si mohl vzít a zajistit si dědice titulu, a ona mu právě v té chvíli vstoupila do cesty. Ačkoli je přitahován její krásou i vtipným a svobodným duchem, nemyslí si, že by mu mohla být dobrou manželkou… pokud by si vůbec chtěla vzít takového zachmuřeného cynika za manžela. Přesto však touží, aby ji mohl mít jen pro sebe. Clarissa původně nemá v úmyslu se provdat – ani za Edwina, o němž si myslí, že by z něj byl příliš panovačný manžel, a už rozhodně ne za francouzského diplomata, který ji všude pronásleduje. Když však aféra s diplomatem vyvrcholí, rozhodne se přijmout Edwinovu galantní nabídku k sňatku mezi dvěma přáteli, protože doufá, že se tak zbaví neodbytného Francouze. Od sňatku neočekává nic víc než na rozumu založené spojení, ale jejich stále žhavější polibky jí brzy ukážou, že získala víc, než si představovala. Když jí však diplomat pohrozí, že odhalí jejich nejhlubší tajemství, vydrží rodící se náklonnost mezi manžely veřejné zostuzení, nebo přijde Edwin při obraně své ženy o všechno, co je pro něj důležité?
