At London’s Notorious Cyprian Ball…
Georgianna Escott has one night to find the perfect man to ruin her and leave her with a tattered reputation so she can escape an arranged marriage to an aging, despicable roué. With a misstep, she tumbles into the arms of the disgraced and dashing Lord Danvers. But Georgie doesn’t know that the lover she has enticed to follow her into the night and the stranger she holds responsible for her misfortunes are one in the same…
A Dangerous Night of Seduction
When Lord Danvers finds himself entangled with a tempting Cyprian, his secret mission to expose a dangerous spy goes awry. Yet once he starts to unmask this bewitching lady, he realizes the seductress who claims his heart may be the traitor he seeks. Mistrust makes them adversaries in a perilous game—but how can he dismiss his obsession with her when one night of passion entwined their lives forever?
Book 2
A Scandalous Elopement
The Marquis of Templeton has faced every sort of danger in his work for the King, but chasing after a wayward spinster who’s had the effrontery to run off with the wrong man hardly seems worth his considerable talents. But when the heiress in question is none other than Lady Diana Fordham, Temple is about to meet his match. Tempestuous and passionate, headstrong and opinionated, the lady is everything a man should avoid …
A Dangerous Plan
Diana has no intention of making Temple’s assignment easy. In fact she has every reason to turn his life upside down-just as he did to hers when he broke her heart years ago. Now it’s Diana’s turn to give Temple a lesson in love, from a teasing glance to a scandalous embrace. However, as she leads him on a merry chase from London to Gretna Green, they soon realize that a kiss once given is hard to forget, and a rekindled passion is impossible to deny.
Book 3
Innocence Lost
A notorious rake, the Marquis of Bradstone stole young Olivia Sutton’s heart…and then ruined her life. For seven years she has been forced to hide her past behind a false identity. And now the dashing scoundrel has returned a different man: handsomer, more serious, more desirable…and far more dangerous than the cad who brought scandal and shame into Olivia’s world.
Rapture Found
Major Robert Danvers is living a lie — but for a noble cause. Masquerading as his cousin, the late Marquis, Robert’s secret mission for the crown has led him straight to the beautiful, scheming seductress he believes was responsible for his brother’s death. But there is a gentle innocence about this Olivia that belies her murderous reputation — and a passionate sensuality that makes him yearn to hold her in his arms forever. So while his loyalty to his mission tells him that surrender would be the worst sort of betrayal—once tempted, how can a man resist, when his heart tells him here is his one true love?
Book 4
A Lady of Passion
Rebecca Tate never intended to cause a revolution with her notoriously popular Miss Darby novels, merely to earn enough to support herself and her ailing uncle. But now it seems every eligible debutante in London is emulating her spunky heroine and refusing to marry ever! Still, Rebecca’s enjoying her newfound success as Miss Darby’s anonymous creator, and she’s not about to let anyone interfere — not even the rakishly appealing Raphael Danvers.
An Impossible Rogue
Having survived the perils of war and espionage, Rafe is less than thrilled by a disgruntled society matron’s wish that he unmask the unknown author and halt the scandalous scribblings. The assignment becomes more attractive however when the trail leads to the enticing Miss Tate. Suddenly the dashing adventurer can’t get enough of the charming troublemaker — and her resorting to some rather Darbyesque trickery to distract him only serves to intensify his desire. But will a rogue’s determined pursuit lead to a happy romantic ending or lead them both into a dangerous intrigue?
Book 5
Sometimes the road to love…
Miss Amanda Preston never intended to make a bargain with a matchmaker when she stumbled into the lady’s cottage late one stormy night. But imagine her surprise when she wakes up and discovers none other than James “Jemmy” Reyburn barging into the house and into her life. But her life is no longer her own and she’s got little time left to finish what she’s set out to do.
Takes a slight detour…
Entangled in the matchmaker’s bargain, Amanda is about to be betrothed to another man, but her heart longs for her first and only love, Jemmy, a man she discovers is long lost. The devil-may-care son of Lord and Lady Finch returned from the wars in Spain scarred and bitter, a shell of the rake Amanda remembers. Now she must help Jemmy rekindle his lost spirit, before her time runs out.
