Books

       Here are a few of my books.

Embracing Scandal –  Slide show, excerpt and buy links HERE.

Launches 18th February, 2013, at Crimson Romance

The first in my historical romance scandal series featuring heroines whose scientific knowledge and intellect are an affront to increasingly prudish late Regency / very early Victorian society.

Lady Rebecca Jamison, a mathematical genius, saves her siblings from financial ruin by dabbling in the London stock exchange. When a greedy syndicate kills her friend and threatens her family, Becca begs assistance from Cayle, Duke of Sherwyn, her nemesis and previous friend. As Cayle and Becca rekindle old passions, the duke uses old skills as a spy to protect his lady. He successfully defeats the illegal consortium, but can Cayle persuade a self-sufficient spinster to become his duchess?

Scenting Scandal

The second in my scandal series with heroines whose scientific knowledge and intellect are an affront to early Victorian’s increasingly staid society. The family’s second sister uses her extraordinary olfactory senses to sniff out her perfect match, a husband who fits all her scientific criteria. The earl, with whom she’s forced to co-operate in order to stop a mad-woman bent on destroying legitimate share investors in Britain’s railways, evades marriage with someone as beautiful and intelligent as her, fearing she’ll uncover his shameful childhood secret. But by accepting each other’s strengths and weakness, they discover a passion neither counted on.
