A
missing heirloom. A stolen inheritance. Can love conquer
mistrust?
Athena
Hawthorne never imagined that she would lose everything she'd ever
had. But after the death of her father, his prosperous jewelry store
is sold off to pay his supposed debts. Athena, now destitute, embarks
on a mission to discover the truth, but circumstances force her to
accept an offer from a handsome stranger to work as a governess.
She's determined to clear her father's name, but a certain earl is
making matters far more difficult than necessary. And she can't be in
danger of losing her heart to a member of the aristocracy...
Orion
Ashcroft, the Earl of Rockford, is convinced that Athena is a
grasping thief who stole a priceless family heirloom, the rare
sapphire known as the Couleur Magnifique. When he offers her the
position of governess to his sister's children, he only intends to
catch her in some nefarious scheme and get back the sapphire—his
grandmother's dying wish. But he soon discovers that keeping his
distance—and his sanity—around the beautiful Athena isn't as easy
as he'd planned. It certainly doesn't help that his sister and his
best friend plead her innocence at every frustrating turn. Soon he's
struggling between honoring his promise and his growing attraction to
Athena.
But
there's danger closer than either expect. Even a masquerade can't
hide Athena from the curiosity of the ton forever...and there's a
threat hiding among the highest members of society...

Secrets.
Lies. And a second chance at love...
Torn
from the only man she'd ever loved by a tragic secret, Mara Miller
has traveled a long and difficult road. From poverty and the
workhouses, she's finally made a life for herself as the owner of a
small haberdashery in London. With her companion, Big B, an African
slave she'd helped escape from a Brazilian slaver, she's made a fresh
start. But when the past walks into her shop—in the form of the
ever-handsome Roarke Garrott, Viscount Eversleigh—Mara feels her
whole world crash to her feet. Thrust back into a web of lies,
deceit, and manipulation, Mara is forced to face the one man she'd
sworn to forget.
For
the past seven years, Roarke had sequestered himself in India to
mourn Mara's death. Vowing to move on and put the past behind him, he
returns to London, only to find himself gazing into those beautiful
green eyes he believed he'd never see again. Now he's found
her—alive and
trying to deny who she was. A million feelings wash over him. Joy.
Fury. Heartbreak. He would have the truth from her—of where she'd
gone, and why—but when trouble from the past finds Mara and Big B,
the truth becomes secondary to saving Mara's life. After just
learning that the woman he'd loved is alive, Roarke is not about to
lose her again...

a Duke Pursues a Lady
Ways
of Love Book 3
An
innocent woman. A loyal agent to the Crown. A path of deception that
tests the bonds of love.
Lyra
Coventry, Lady Weston, has spent the past three years trapped in an
abusive and loveless marriage. But just when she believes she’s
free, she’s charged with the murder of her husband. With no one to
turn to for help, her judgment seems rather dire, until the Duke of
Albright comes forward to offer his aid. With no choice but to put
her trust in him, she doesn’t know that he has an ulterior motive
for helping her – to prove her guilty of treason. It isn’t until
the true villain comes to light that she discovers a strength she
never knew existed – and a love she never thought was possible.
Alister
Ayles, Duke of Albright, might be the subject of ton ridicule, but as
a highly respected agent for the Crown, he discovered a higher
purpose. However, when he’s faced with his toughest investigation
to date, he has to travel a difficult path. Years ago, he’d made a
mistake and let Lyra slip through his fingers. Now, he has a chance
to make it right by clearing her name. But when it comes down to a
test of loyalty, will he stand strong, or fall prey to his desires?
