Author’s The books in the Regency Lovers series are steaming hot. You have been warned! They met in fire, burning with a passion for each other, but when the truth is known will their love turn to ashes? Eleven years ago Lord Zachary Noble, the Earl of Harrogate, was involved in a scandal which rocked Society. It resulted in the loss of his reputation and being ostracized and held in contempt by those who mattered to him. His best friend. His family. No woman would even consider marrying him. All of it gone because of the false accusation levelled at him by a young woman he barely knew. All these years later Zachary’s good name has at last been restored to him after the real culprit is finally found and punished for the crime. Lady Rissa Spencer is very like her father, Magnus, the Duke of Weston, in that she is both determined and steadfast once she sets her very stubborn mind on something, or someone. And she has set her heart on Zachary. Zachary appreciates that Rissa is beautiful, as well as vivacious and intelligent, but she is also the very last woman he should ever allow himself to fall in love with. Nor will Rissa wish for his love once she becomes aware that the scandal in Zachary’s past is connected to her family and the stepmother she adores. Unfortunately the past has a way of intruding into the present, and when it seems Rissa’s very life might be in danger, Zachary is determined to protect her. No matter what the cost.
