Lord Of Scandal by Nicola Cornick
Ben Hawksmoor is dangerous to know, a celebrity in the Regency firmament, a friend of Prinny, the lover of the most notorious courtesan in London and an all round scoundrel whose only aim in life is to make money and make sure he never returns to the gutters from which he came.
Catherine Fenton is an heiress, a nabob’s daughter whose only aim is to keep her unhappy family together and save her stepmother from disgrace.
I loved this excerpt.
Nicola is a long time Harlequin Historical author who has been taking a walk on the HQN side. I have both her recent Lord Greville’s Captive (Harlequin Historical Series) and her first HQN Deceived (HQN Romance) in the ‘to be read soon’ box.
What did you think of them? Any good? Check out her website, tis nifty with lots of info and excerpts if you haven’t gotten a chance to read her yet.
EST: Is this a May or June? I thought it should be out now but I can’t find it. Is this one of those it will be out in ‘June’ which means May or maybe June? Why is it so hard to do release dates?
Nicola is an auto-buy for me, Sybil. Her books have a very distinctive feel that I love in a writer. This next one sounds FABBO!!! And last year, she wrote a romance set in the English Civil War called LORD GREVILLE’S CAPTIVE that was just so full of conflict and emotion and heart, I couldn’t put it down. Yeah, I know I’m starting to sound like a press release but she really is worth checking out! Trust me! And hey, do you want to buy a used car?
