Not my favorite by her. It was hard to follow. I felt it just jumped around at times and was confusing. There were secrets that were hinted at that I just didn't care enough to find out about. I didn't finish it.
Plot goes around and around in circles for three quarters of the book. I would suggest reading the prequel SATISFACTION.
From the back cover...
Angilee Rosslyn, Southern American debutante, has been brought to London by her ruthless father to make a profitable marriage to the Viscount Wroth. Titled though he may be, the Viscount is a pig. Desperate for a way out of the marriage, the headstrong Angilee hits on a brilliant solution: she will pay to be deflowered. And who better to be the agent of her downfall than the notorious Kyger Galliard?
Want. Need. Desire. It's all the same thing to Kyger, spending his nights drowning in sex and sin. He's instantly intrigued by Angilee-by her beauty, her determination, her body...One night of white-hot passion together only whets his appetite, and soon he's arranging for clandestine meetings in the midst of London's social whirl, falling deeper under her spell, even as he realizes the danger they are in...
Now, in a world of smoke and mirrors, where secret rooms hold bold pleasures no good man should witness, Kyger must walk a tightrope to discover who is an enemy, who is an ally, and who really is involved in a diabolical secret society he has sworn to destroy. But his best chance to accomplish his mission hinges on his using the sensual and luscious Angilee-a woman he'd do anything to protect-as his unwitting pawn...

Generally, I like books by Thea Devine. I found this one hard to get through.
