One Wicked Sin (Scandalous Women of the Ton, Book 2) by Nicola Cornick
London, July 1813
Once the toast of the ton, Lottie Cummings is now notorious for being divorced-and without a penny. Shunned by society the destitute beauty is forced to become a Covent Garden courtesan. Refusing to oblige her customers, Lottie's about to be turned out onto the streets. Until a dangerous rake saves her with a scandalous offer.

Now on parole, Ethan is planning his most audacious coup yet. But he needs to create a spectacular diversion. And having infamous Lottie as his mistress will lull everyone into thinking he's busily bedding her instead of plotting deadly treason...
