The Duke’s Indiscretion
by Adele Ashworth
Lady Charlotte Hughes lives a double life. By day, she is the plain, demure sister of a domineering brother who wants her married and out of the way. By night, she is Lottie English, an intoxicating, glamorous woman of mystery — a famed opera singer who drives men wild with wanting her. But the only man Charlotte wants is Colin Ramsey, Duke of Newark, though the dashing nobleman would certainly never risk his reputation on a woman like her. Imagine her shock, then, when the duke reveals himself as a smitten fan… and, while attempting to seduce her, inadvertently discovers her true identity.
Charlotte will submit to the handsome duke’s every wish, but only as his wife — a proposal Colin eagerly accepts. But his secret duty to the Crown — to expose Charlotte’s nemesis — threatens the fiery, very real passion that consumes them. And when Charlotte herself is suddenly imperiled, Colin must choose where his loyalties lie — and risk everything for the remarkable lady who has so thoroughly captured his heart.
I have to say I am a whore for the red covers. They call to me saying buy me! That and purple… love a purdy purple cover. I like it but I am a not sure I like the man’s hand but I can say I would stop and pick this up and look it over even if I didn’t know of the author. Full cover is here: here and excerpt tis here
Then there is the good and the bad (sez I) here
Love the title Passion in Winter… but bah on the contemp Romantic Suspense Idea… yes yes I know writers want to branch out and spread their wings yada yada yada.. le sigh if nothing else at least it isn’t another paranormal… but we really can’t afford to lose any historical authors!!! I did so not approve this!
But hey the Winter Garden thing is a trilogy! Isn’t it odd we are already looking at books coming out in Spring of 2008? Or is that just me?
Is that the first PLEASURE FOR PLEASURE cover before they changed it? But with red?
Love the color, though.
Nope, never mind.
OMG A Winter Garden Trilogy!!
Thank you Miss Ashworth!!
