Can love redeem the most unworthy of rogues? Nicolette Marsden is standing on the precipice of the rest of her life and she isn’t sure what she wants. At a house party in honor of she and her sisters, Nicolette is supposed to choose one of the men present to marry, but none stir her heart, not until one fateful night when the least marriageable of them all, the devilish rogue, Mr. Denham, happens to catch her singing. She knows she should not fall for him, but what can a caged bird do, when freedom lies in the hands of a rake? Theodore Denham has lived in his brothers shadow all his life. Though his parents loved them both equally, Theo could never measure up, so he went in the opposite direction, letting his devilish side run free, until he couldn’t remember what it was to be good. But his sins have caught up with him, and soon he will have to leave England or face retribution. Seduced by Nicolette’s angelic voice, Theo risks all to prove that he can be redeemed, but only after taking what should never have been his. Her heart.

This volume looks at the history of the idea of sin as it has influenced and shaped Western culture. Emphasis is placed on an inter- and cross-disciplinary approach. The word "sin" has come to transcend the theological and enter the common parlance in both media and society. This book is an examination of that idea. It discusses how the concept of sin evolved through the Middle Ages and into the modern era. From religion to politics and from the bedroom to the boardroom, a more complete understanding of the history of sin will assist the modern reader in a wide variety of fields. This book builds on the work of Gregory the Great to explain each of the so-called seven deadly sins: pride, lust, anger, gluttony, avarice, envy, and sloth. Each chapter provides a close look at the origins and history of that individual sin, concluding with a section on contemporary applications of the idea and a case study. The central argument is that the concept of sin has been integral to the development of Western society, including not only political and religious history but also in extensive aspects of popular culture in the twenty-first century. The broader but significant issue of intention versus action permeates the study.
