Table of contents
Still, there are responsibilities he must discharge before he resumes his pleasures, including finding a bride and depositing his incorrigible niece at a relative's academy outside London. It is at this so-very-proper finishing school that flame-haired instructress Harriet Gardner awakens in Griffin emotions so dangerously intoxicating that he must avoid her at all cost. Yet when Harriet finds work in the townhouse where Griffin resides, her presence tempts him at every turn.
Harriet has survived London's streets far too long to let an arrogant duke woo a bride he doesn't want when she desires him for herself, and she has seen too much of life not to recognize a man ripe for redemption. But just as Harriet finds the perfect cure for His Lordship's devilish ways, a vindictive enemy intervenes, and the duke whom Harriet has plotted to save suddenly becomes her most devoted protector.
There is no bet this cynical gentleman will not take-and no woman he cannot seduce. But when he travels to the country manor he wins during a card game, he discovers there is one gamble he has never risked and that he may have met his match. His opponent and neighbor is none other than Alethea Claridge, the only person who stood by him during his wildest years and the only woman ever to captivate his heart. But beneath her shield of feigned sorrow, she hides an unspeakable secret-one that could destroy her reputation forever.
So when this dark horseman thunders back into her life one night, she is understandably wary of him. She had defended Gabriel once when he was a wicked boy. But now, as a beguiling man, he makes his sensual desires well known even as he swears he will reform.
Will the irresistible scoundrel redeem himself and restore her trust in love or ruin her completely? She will soon have her answer as Gabriel challenges everything she believes about love, about herself, and about what it takes to be a hero.

Delighted to be so close to Emma, Adrian finds her irresistible. Although Emma is very tempted by the handsome Adrian, if she succumbs to her passion for him, her family would be outraged. Emma would need to keep her affair with Adrian a secret from her overprotective brothers and from the rest of society as well.
Such a secret would be almost impossible to keep from Emma's very observant siblings. But the erotic pleasure Adrian gives Emma is too delicious to refuse. That being said, I urge everyone to read this entire series as it is extremely enjoyable. In The Devilish Pleasures of a Duke I was very amused by the lengths the Boscastle brothers were willing to go to protect their sister's virtue.
Whether she wanted her virtue protected or not! I adored that Adrian was willing to risk Emma's brothers' ire to be with her. The Devilish Pleasures of a Duke is a sigh-inducing, sensual, blissfully good read! Annmarie Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed. I enjoy all of Jillian Hunter's books, I was reading this series from my local library and found that they did not have this book. So I immediately went on Amazon and found it. And for a great price. It arrived a few days later and I was able to begin another exciting adventure with the Boscastle family.
I really enjoyed this book, but it was not my favorite, Emma did not act as I expected her to, because of how she has been in the other books in the series.

Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Too long of a revenge thing going on. It could have been better. I'd still recommend this to a friend but warn her first. I gave this installment three stars cause I kept falling asleep. Every Boscastles book I have read so far, I have truly enjoyed.
Can't wait to read the next one by this Arthur. Jillian Hunter is an artist in her characterizations. I love the humor she instills in her characters and their very real emotions. Each book I read that she has written has surpassed the last. The conditions of the books I have ordered have all been excellent. I do not hesitate to order more. Fun fast moving book. Easy to read till the end. A shorter book then what she usually has but not lacking in anyway. You'll not be disappointed with the Boscastle series!
