Hi! I was wondering if anyone knows any historical romances where it is the heroine who rapes the hero, or forces sex, kind of like in The Duke and I? It doesn't need to be a bodice ripper, but I prefer historical romance (or even historical fiction)

I recently read Prisoner of My Desire which has this trope where the heroine rapes the hero. This is one of my more favourite reads by Johanna Lindsey!Anna Campbell also wrote My Reckless Surrender which is not a rape but the heroine is seducing the hero under the pretext of securing his baby, which I feel like is in line with how Daphne does it in Julia Quinn's The Duke and I, if I remember the story. This is not a bodice ripper although Avon markets Campbell's work as "noir romance" w/e that means lol.
