Overview

Even though it had been four years since his fiancee, Elizabeth, scandalously jilted him at the altar, Marcus Ashford, the Earl of Westfield, had never forgotten her. Now the widow Lady Hawthorne, Elizabeth is free of any matrimonial bonds, and Marcus is determined to pursue her. When Marcus discovers that Elizabeth is in danger because of the coded diary left behind by her late husband, Marcus insists on being the one to protect Elizabeth since it will provide him with the perfect opportunity to seduce her into admitting he is the only man for her. Day expertly crafts a potent sense of sexual chemistry between her irresistibly arrogant, sinfully sexy hero and the one woman clever enough to be his equal. With its surfeit of sensually detailed love scenes and vividly descriptive writing, Ask for It is perfect for readers who prefer their historical romances filled with plenty of sizzling passion and dangerous drama.

    Wow, this is one steamy novel. It's exceptional in that, it also has a plot...something blatantly missing in many a historical romance. The characters become real and the emotions come off the page. This is one very hot read that I could not put down. I'd love to see more of Day's books available at the eBook store.

Excerpt from: Ask For It by Sylvia Day

' Thank you for allowing me to repair myself here, ' Elizabeth said softly from the doorway that led to the bedroom.

She ' d used the room that was meant to be hers ' that of the lady of the house. Turning to face her, he saw her staring down at her clasped hands. ' William would have known something was amiss if I ' d returned home looking a mess. '

Marcus studied her, noting the dark circles that rimmed her eyes. Was she having trouble sleeping Was he tormenting her dreams the way she tormented his

' Is your family not in residence ' she asked, looking about as if she could find them. ' Lady Westfield Paul and Robert '

' My mother writes that Robert ' s latest experiment is delaying their arrival. So that leaves you and me quite alone. '

' Oh. ' She bit her lower lip.

' Elizabeth, this matter has become extremely dangerous. Once the man who attacked you recovers, he will come after you again. If he has associates, they won ' t wait. '

She nodded. ' I ' m aware of the situation. I will be on my guard. '

' That ' s insufficient. I want you to be guarded, night and day, not just outriders when you go out. I want someone with you at all times, even when you sleep. '

' Impossible. William will know something is amiss if I have guards at the house. '
