Eloisa James is a Shakespeare professor at Fordham University and author of twenty-one New York Times best-selling historical romances. A reviewer from USA Today admitted to “devouring” one of Eloisa’s books “like a dieter with a Hershey bar.” The mother of two children, Eloisa wrote a memoir, the best-seller Paris in Love, about the year her family lived in France. In a particularly delicious irony for a romance writer, she is married to a genuine Italian knight. She lives in New York City.

But after one encounter with the captivating Merry, Trent desires her more than any woman he has ever met. The problem is Merry is already betrothed. But as Trent and Merry discover, love has a way of complicating the most perfect plans . . .
