Happy April!
(To find out if you won a Rake Review calendar read till the end!)
Have you read the Mad Duke March?
I know it is April already, but this book can be read all year long! If you love complex characters, alphaholes, strong heroines and emotionally scarred heroes this book is for you.
Right now I am finishing my upcoming novel The Notorious Lady.
It is a fun enemies-to-lovers and forced proximity romance with a bit of suspense!
I am a bit frazzled right now, so much so, that I haven't even made a cover reveal for this book!
I am going to unveil the cover right now and will have a sign-up sheet for ARC copies, too.
She's the lawless...
Grace clawed her way from the gutter to become the infamous proprietress of the city's most notorious brothel. But when a gentleman is murdered inside her establishment, she becomes the prime suspect. With the hangman's noose tightening, her only ally is the last man on earth she'd trust—the surly, self-righteous thief-taker Ford Gunning, who regards her like she's a stain on his boots.
He's the law…
Ford Gunning’s reputation as a thief-taker precedes him, his prowess hailed even by the king himself. But when he reluctantly agrees to help Grace save her reputation, he ends up sullying his own.
Accused of sins they didn’t commit, the unlikely pair go on the run, forced to huddle for warmth and cover, sharing a horse and a bed… As they clash and collide, they may just discover that beneath the animosity lies a fiery passion waiting to be unleashed.
But can Ford trust a woman who trades in passion and lies? Or will her secrets be the end of them both?

New Releases from my friends:
Everyone knows debutantes will do anything to marry a duke, but that is only partly why the heir to the Ridgefield Dukedom is going undercover.
For all intents and purposes, the mysterious Mr. Pope is nothing more than an ill-advised prospect—a penniless, albeit handsome rake.
Forbidden—if a girl knows what’s good for her.
As the eldest of seven sisters, Miss Julia Rigsby has one task in life—marry well.
The trouble is, she’s clueless when it comes to flirting. Might she learn a trick or two from the stranger who came to her aid?
Mr. Pope, it seems, is more than capable of teaching the ins and outs of courting, not to mention, easy on the eyes…
"So tell me, Miss Jones, why should I employ you as governess?"
A question to rouse fear within the breast of any prospective governess, unless...she wasn't a governess at all.
Yet Amelia must secure this position by whatever means necessary as this gentleman, dubbed The Scandalous Hugh Cadwalader by fashionable society, is not all he seems. Behind the elegant finery and azure eyes is a dangerous warrior of a man, a tenacious spy for the Crown.
One who might just have turned traitor...
"Just one more question, if I may..."
With her perfect references and perfect demureness, Miss Jones appears...perfect.
Feminine guidance and distraction are required for his inquisitive ward while Hugh Cadwalader hunts a traitor in the alleys of London's Rookery.
But can such perfection be all it seems? And was that a glimpse of golden fire within those amber eyes?
The Dangerous Spy and... The More Dangerous Governess.
One should never judge a governess by her perfectly forged references or a spy by his unblemished Hessian boots, for behind both facades lay passion untamed, subterfuge unbound and a quest for justice.
A battle of wits with only one winner... Love.
In the glittering ballrooms and scandalous gambling dens of Regency England, the notorious Lord Tristan Breckenridge is a name whispered with both awe and trepidation. When a high-stakes card game leads him to win the captivating Miss Emmeline Brooks, a virtuous lady untouched by the allure of London society, their fates become irrevocably entwined.
Tristan, a charming rogue with a disdain for marriage, never expected to acquire a wife through a game of chance. Emmeline, resolute in her determination to avoid scandal at all costs, finds herself bound to a man whose reputation precedes him.
As their worlds collide and duty clashes with desire, Tristan and Emmeline must navigate the treacherous waters of an unwanted marriage and their own conflicting emotions. Sparks fly between them, igniting a passion neither anticipated. Can they forge a love that defies expectations? Or will their union unravel, risking everything they hold dear?
Love Rakes, Rogues, and Scoundrels?
There are more for you to enjoy below!
Cheers!
