** *Revenge is sweet until it breaks your heart.* ** Four years ago, Faith’s mysterious benefactress falsely accused her of stealing and deposited her in Madame Chambon’s exclusive brothel. There, Faith was to learn how to entrance London’s noble gentlemen with her learning in philosophy, politics and art. Her body was to be saved for the greatest enticement of all: revenge. Faith doesn’t care what she has to do. She lives only to fulfil a bargain that will set her free. But when Faith is recruited as the muse of a talented, sensitive painter whose victory in a prestigious art competition turns them both into celebrities overnight, she discovers the reasons behind her mission are very different from what she'd been led to believe. Now she is complicit in something dark and dangerous while riches, adulation and freedom are hers for the taking. But what value are these if her heart has become a slave to the man she is required to destroy? **Keeping Faith is book 3 in the Fair Cyprians of London series but can be read as a stand-alone.**

London, 1818

Shy, self-effacing Henrietta knows her place—in her dazzling older sister’s shadow. She’s a little brown peahen to Araminta’s bird of paradise. But when Hetty mistakenly becomes embroiled in the Regency underworld, the innocent debutante finds herself shockingly compromised by the dashing, dangerous Sir Aubrey, the very gentleman her heart desires. And the man Araminta has in her cold, calculating sights.

Branded an enemy of the Crown, bitter over the loss of his wife, Sir Aubrey wants only to lose himself in the warm, willing body of the young “prostitute” Hetty. As he tutors her in the art of lovemaking, Aubrey is pleased to find Hetty not only an ardent student, but a bright, witty and charming companion.

Despite a spoiled Araminta plotting for a marriage offer and a powerful political enemy damaging his reputation, Aubrey may suffer the greatest betrayal at the hands of the little “concubine” who’s managed to breach the stony exterior of his heart.

Wedding Violet

Sat, 05 Mar 2022 18:17:02 +0200

Abandoned at the altar, Max, Lord Belvedere believes he's evaded family obligation in favour of a life of adventuring in Africa. But his ailing Aunt Euphemia has other ideas.
When Max finds himself in the delightfully diverting arms of Violet Lilywhite while visiting London's most prestigious House of Assignation, he happens upon the perfect plan. A sham wedding to a 'penniless shop girl' should fulfil Aunt Euphemia's romantic dreams without losing him his newfound liberty.

Violet agrees to the deception with no hesitation. Lord Belvedere is certainly the most charming and surprising of all her male consorts but she has no illusions about a shared future. She wants only to escape the clutches of infamous Madame Chambon.
The plan appears perfect until Max and Violet find themselves falling in love.
But, just as it seems Aunt Euphemia will have her romantic finale, a shock discovery threatens the foundation of Max...

The Reluctant Bride

Tue, 05 Mar 2013 18:16:59 +0200

Forced into marriage to legitimise her dead fiance's unborn child, Emily feels only resentment towards the noble soldier whose marriage proposal has saved her from destitution.
She regards Major Angus McCartney's actions as opportunistic as she mourns her one true love, Jack.
But Jack led a secret, double life, as Angus well knows.
And Angus is not an opportunist. Too shy to declare himself, he has loved Emily from afar for five long years.
With the loss of Jack's child cementing Emily's anger towards Angus, the quiet soldier longs to win her with action and honour – rather than by revealing Jack's secret.
However, it's an explosive revelation from Emily's past that threatens to destroy the burgeoning feeling between noble Angus and his reluctant bride.
A revelation that threatens their very lives.
An intrigue-filled romance with espionage and action for readers who love 'marriage of convenience' Regency romances, and second chance...

An Unsuitable Alliance

Sat, 05 Mar 2022 18:17:01 +0200

A handsome politician determined to stamp out corruption.
A beautiful wife with a sinful past.
And a burgeoning love threatened by more than a past liaison.

Three years after her dutifully contracted marriage, Adelaide, Lady Leeson, has fallen in love with her husband.

Desperately, unequivocally, and madly in love with the good, honest man who rescued her when she was at her lowest ebb.

The problem is that Tristan, Lord Leeson, thinks she is indeed a little mad—though he cares deeply for her.

And Adelaide's mother will do whatever she can to enforce the fiction that her daughter has led a blameless past and that her psychological distress is based on events far more innocent than the truth.

However, when Adelaide's past lover returns to England, now a celebrity due to his salacious poems, all of society wants to discover the identity of his muse.

Now Adelaide must double down on her mother's lies.
