Tempt Me at Twilight, the third book in Lisa Kleypas's popular Victorian romance series.
Poppy Hathaway loves her unconventional family, though she longs for normalcy. Then fate leads to a meeting with Harry Rutledge, an enigmatic hotel owner and inventor with wealth, power, and a dangerous hidden life. When their flirtation compromises her own reputation, Poppy shocks everyone by accepting his proposal—only to find that her new husband offers his passion, but not his trust.
Harry was willing to do anything to win Poppy—except to open his heart. All his life, he has held the world at arm's length...but the sharp, beguiling Poppy demands to be his wife in every way that matters. Still, as desire grows between them, an enemy lurks in the shadows. Now if Harry wants to keep Poppy by his side, he must forge a true union of body and soul, once and for all.

Poppy Hathaways sister Beatrixs ferret steals a love letter written to Poppy by Michael Bayning, which could ruin everything. Of course, with Poppys luck, she, the ferret, and her love letter are all found by Harry Rutledge, the mysterious owner of the hotel where Poppy and her family are staying for the season. As one of Londons most successful and wealthiest businessmen, Harry had met dozens of beautiful women, but none of them have captivated him quite like this unconventional lady chasing a ferret around his hotel. Once Harry realizes Poppy is the only woman for him, he sets about removing whatever obstacles might be in the way of marrying her, including Michael, his current rival for her affections. Brimming with superbly nuanced characters, simmering sexual chemistry, and wicked wit, the latest in Kleypas Victorian-set Hathaway series is a thoroughly romantic literary treat.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
