Serie Reglas de los Canallas
03. No Good Duke Goes Unpunished
Synopsis:
A rogue ruined . . .
He is the Killer Duke, accused of murdering Mara Lowe on the eve of her wedding. With no memory of that fateful night, Temple has reigned over the darkest of London’s corners for twelve years, wealthy and powerful, but beyond redemption. Until one night, Mara resurfaces, offering the one thing he’s dreamed of . . . absolution.
A lady returned . . .
Mara planned never to return to the world from which she’d run, but when her brother falls deep into debt at Temple’s exclusive casino, she has no choice but to offer Temple a trade that ends in her returning to society and proving to the world what only she knows . . . that he is no killer.
A scandal revealed . . .
It’s a fine trade, until Temple realizes that the lady—and her past—are more than they seem. It will take every bit of his strength to resist the pull of this mysterious, maddening woman who seems willing to risk everything for honor . . . and to keep from putting himself on the line for love.

Sinopsis:
Un pícaro arruinado...
Él es el Duque Asesino, acusado de matar a Mara Lowe la víspera de su boda. Si ningún recuerdo de esa fatal noche, Temple ha reinado las esquinas más oscuras de Londres por doce años, adinerado y poderoso, pero más allá de la redención. Hasta que una noche, Mara reaparece, ofreciendo lo único con lo que él ha soñado... ser absuelto.
Una dama regresa...
Mara planea nunca regresar al mundo del cuál ella huyó, pero cuando su hermano cae profundamente por una deuda que le debe al exclusivo casino de Temple, ella no tiene otra opción más que ofrecerle a Temple un negocio que terminaría con su retorno a la sociedad y decirle al mundo lo que sólo ella sabe... que él no es un asesino.
Un escándalo revelado...
Éste es un buen negocio, hasta que Temple se da cuenta que la dama—y su pasado— son más de lo que aparentan. Esto tomará cada pedacito de su fuerza para resistirse a la atracción que sienta hacia esta misteriosa, enloquecedora mujer que parece dispuesta a arriesgar todo por el honor... y para no ponerse a sí mismo en la línea del amor.
