Fate or Fortune
2015
This is Book 1 of the Deadly Inheritance Series. Alexandra Vesant is stunned to learn she’s inherited a fortune and great property from her distant relative Lady Amelia Whithurst-Browning. She flies to England, a place she’s loved all her life, to take possession of her inheritance. The manor is lovely, the lands are lush but not all the people are warm and welcoming. Robbie, a handsome guy she meets at a pub is different. His sexy grin and smoldering eyes reel her in and she quickly finds herself sharing the passion of a lifetime in his arms. Their steamy romps leave no time for deep conversation about kith and kin. To her surprise she discovers he’s Robert Grey, the son of the Earl of Kent—certainly, he’s no fortune hunter. Robbie feels the same about Alexandra and wastes no time introducing her to his family. Though his parents are cold and distant, his sister is very friendly and his brother, who was first standoffish, is actually a charmer who even flirts with Alexandra. But her pleasure at his siblings’ acceptance is overshadowed by the news that Lady Amelia’s death is being investigated as a murder and the Greys are suspect. One of her own staff warns her to be leery of Robbie because he and his family have a strong motive—they wanted Lady Amelia’s manor house and lands. Alexandra refuses to believe Robbie’s involved. But the seed is sown and doubt rears its ugly head. Robbie has shown her the heights of heaven with just a touch, but will he put her there permanently. Contains steamy scenes of passion and romance.

Just when her life couldn’t be more perfect, Alexandra Vesant is caught in a whirlpool of scandal. William Grey, younger son of the Earl of Kent, has been accused of murdering her great-aunt Amelia. His brother, Robbie, is her boyfriend but can’t be seen in public with her until the whole thing is resolved and the paparazzi are circling like sharks in the water since Robbie’s parents have hinted to the British press that Alexandra may be involved in the murder! And the shocks just keep coming. Her relationship with Robbie is under considerable strain. Then, one of her staff is murdered and everyone in the house, including Alexandra, is suspect. William is now in prison, and Alexandra feels a sense of relief. But how could she have ever known that instead of being over, the real danger is just beginning and she may not live to tell the tale!
