* For those readers who enjoy an Alpha Male who has no qualms taking a feisty, independent woman over his knee. If this offends you do not purchase this novella. * Publisher Note: Contrary to some of the reviews posted, this book IS NOT a novella based on the PBS series, Miss Scarlet and the Duke, nor was it written and published after the series began. This story was crafted and published years BEFORE the series on PBS, with completely different characters and storyline.
