Description for POTENT CHARMS by Peggy Waide: A BATTLE OF WILLS She was the most frustrating woman Stephen Lambert had ever met--and the most beguiling. But a Gypsy curse had doomed the esteemed duke of Badrick to a life without a happy marriage, and not even a strong-willed colonial heiress with a perplexing tendency to find trouble could change that. Stephen decided that since he could not have her for a wife, he would convince her to be the next best thing: his mistress. But Phoebe Rafferty needed a husband, and fast. She had four weeks to get married and claim her inheritance. Phoebe had no use for the doddering English lords who fell all over her and her title; she only had eyes for the most wildly attractive and equally aggravating duke. But he refused to marry her, mumbling nonsense about a curse. With time running out, Phoebe vowed to persuade the stubborn aristocrat that curses were poppycock and the only spell he had fallen under was love.
