SWEET VIOLET 2/2002 ISBN: 0821771469 Regency. Violet Pearson wants adventure --and as soon as she gets her father's permission to run the family business while her parents are away, she knows she will have it. Gabriel Isling, Duke of Belmont, is on a mission--a mission to find some peace in his life. Since his sister's death at the hands of her husband, he has promised to save as many women as he can from brutal men. One look at the boy brawling in a Williamsburg tavern, and he knows it's actually a waif he must rescue. Violet cannot believe her luck. Her savior is the Duke, the very person she was on her way to see. Now she must persuade this powerful man to purchase her parents' plantation's seedlings for his greenhouse in London. If only the feelings he generates when he touches her would go away, he would be able to concentrate on business.

SCANDAL'S REWARD 8/1994 ISBN:0821746669 Regency. Catherine Hunter was enjoying a last stroll on the moors before she left her father's vicarage to become a paid companion to Lady Montagu. Spying the approaching horseman, Catherine had only meant to warn him of the bog; instead, she pitched headlong into his path! Even in her embarrassment, she couldn't help noticing that he was uncommonly handsome, though his tongue-lashing was most ungentlemanly. But then, Catherine's furious retort was completely unladylike! Charles de Dagonet is suspected of every vice, even murder. When he breaks into his childhood home, steals the jewelry, insults the guests, and kisses Kate Hunter, the vicar's daughter and his aunt's companion, Kate is determined to thwart him, until she too is caught up in the mystery, and the fascination of the man known as Devil Dagonet.

ILLUSION 9/1998 ISBN: 0425164470 Regency. With stunning courage, Miss Frances Woodard returned home to Regency England in the troubled Spring of 1815. An Englishwoman trained in a maharaja's harem in the erotic secrets of the Kama Sutra, skilled practitioner of an ancient philosophy of love, how else can she survive except as a professional courtesan? No man in Regency London can resist her silken allure, except one: The darkly handsome Nigel, Marquess of Rivaulx, ruthless master spy and code breaker. Damaged by years of intrigue in Russia and France, he craves only innocence. Yet, to uncover a traitor, he must win Frances for one wanton night of passion. Shielded by his cynical wit and wicked sense of humor, Nigel believes he is the man to defy her . . . but is he? Her trained sensuality shatters all his preconceptions, and deadly treachery awaits, threatening both life and sanity. As Nigel drags Frances into his dangerous world of conspiracy and adventure, where murderous hidden enemies plot England's downfall and Nigel's destruction, the war of nations is mirrored by their war of wit and desire. Soon these two brave souls are swept into a swirl of intrigue and fiery excitement, where courage, honor, and compassion may not be enough to prevent the heart's devastation. Yet nothing is as it seems. Intricate layers of deception and illusion must be uncovered before treachery and passion can lead to love.
