Synopsis

To all of Regency London, Sebastian Traherne is a pretentious fop who prizes his tailor over his dukedom. In truth, he's an obsessively rational fellow protecting a secret marriage. When a prickly Welsh miss arrives at his crumbling castle one gloomy night, she upends his world-and every principle he holds dear. Worse, she believes in a silly fairy tale known as True Love. Gwynna Owen might be the last true Princess of Wales, but she needs this very English duke to claim her legacy and vanquish a tyrant. When Sebastian quickly sees through her boy's disguise, she must plead her case with only a rusty dagger-and sapphire eyes that conjure what he most wishes to avoid. Author's This Regency historical, set in 1816, grew bigger and more sweeping than I planned. One early surprise may be a dealbreaker for some romance fans. If you're looking for a classic Regency historical that fits a formula, Lord Shallow may not be your cup of tea. Yet character will out. Here you'll find a man who is so much more than he seems and a woman who's finding her voice after years of having it suppressed. Their struggle as they make their way to one another is this story's truth. About the Maitland's Rogues Andrew Maitland's group of daring English rogues risk all for their country. Hardened and deadly, they have no use for love-until it ensnares them...
