Just Published!

Just published this weekend, my latest book The Enigmatic Earl, it is a playful Regency short story of a battle weary earl about to make his way to the London marriage mart, when he and his best friend Viscount Allum decide to take shelter from an impending storm at their favorite local haunt, the Angel Fayre Inn.
The complete book description is below, if you read The Aloof Marquess, you will recognize the names of Surcliffe and Allum as they were secondary characters.
I decided each of the appealing three lords needed their own stories. I have to admit to falling a little in love with Surcliffe myself!
The book will be available on Amazon this weekend. I do hope you will let me know what you think. Oh, and if you are an animal lover, then this one is for you! You will meet Rufus, a lovable wolfhound!

The Enigmatic Earl





The Enigmatic Earl
A Seductive Regency Short Story


Can a battle weary lord preparing to head for the Season’s marriage mart find love in an unexpected place?

When Richard Merilstone, the Earl of Surcliffe, and Drake Warfield, Viscount Allum, ride up to their favorite haunt the Angel Fayre Inn to escape an impending storm, they are dismayed to find it appears to be closed.

But when they enter the quiet inn they find not only the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose, who are preparing for a family trip, but their niece Miss Angela Lowry. Although the inn is closed for business, as old and valued customers they are invited to join the family for dinner.

The Season is in full swing and both gentlemen must leave for London in the following days to begin their search for a bride. It is time to marry and neither is looking forward to it. They don’t expect to have the same luck as their friend and neighbor James Ashburn, the Marquess of Telforn, who despite his marriage of convenience was lucky enough to find love.

But under the tender auspices of the owner’s beautiful young niece, one last night at the inn proves to be revealing in many ways for one of them, and his life may never be the same.
