Thus, Gus gains an ally—and Kane acquires an alibi. But Gus’s ally is a darling man whose kindness thrills her. His alibi is a brave, beautiful woman he cannot give up.

She’ll save her sisters and young brother from the French who would abduct and ransom them to get her renegade older brother, Crown Prince Rainer to turn himself in to the French. Liesel has always made her own rules, disrupting London society and refusing to marry her betrothed, a dyspeptic British prince. She ignores those who would dampen her exuberant nature. Now to save her family, she will do anything, even barge into a stranger’s bathing room and upbraid him for his failures, while the poor fellow stands before her naked. Torn by desire, he must save her, then leave her…if he can bear to let her go. Dirk, Lord Fournier is heaven to look at. A charming devil to be near. But he agrees to help her. After all, rescuing dispossessed European royalty from the clutches of the French is his specialty. He’s failed at so much else, but he’ll do her bidding. He’ll save her family. He’ll even save her reputation, damn his righteous soul…but must never touch her. Her fire is enchanting. Her kisses, an ineluctable lure. Still, a crown princess is not for him. He’s a mere baron, English at that, and a spy in Scarlett Hawthorne’s network. He’s unworthy of Liesel, his reputation tarnished by a lie he ruined a woman, denied her claim and left her alone to bear the shame. Read in Kindle Unlimited! Scarlett Affairs.

Clive Davenport, the Marquess of Carlisle, does not fall for beautiful women.

Swaying in the June breeze, she is the picture of freedom and delight in the summer sun... moreShe’s much too carefree, too lovely, too enchanting to be a spy. His job is to catch spies. She cannot possibly be one—and he cannot possibly love her! Clive Davenport, the Marquess of Carlisle, does not fall for beautiful women. But when the dark-haired sylph he glimpsed not far from his home last winter reappears on the beach at Brighton, he cannot escape her lure. Swaying in the June breeze, she is the picture of freedom and delight in the summer sun. Then she saves his little girl from the crashing waves of the Channel waters and constructs kites that dance in his daughter’s hands—and in his heart. She tells him her name is Giselle Laurant, and that she is a French émigré with a work commission she must urgently finish. Employing her special talents as an illustrator, she does not reveal that her renderings of coastal English towns have a special destination. So falling in love with dashing Carlisle creates problems. He will not disappear. Nor does she want him to. Her past experience with an abusive husband and French police are bitter. Yet she marvels at Clive’s kisses that are so sweet, and his tender regard so alluring, that she allows herself one night of surrender. But when her foes track her, Clive is determined to save her, no matter her sympathies. No matter that he loves her to distraction. Because Clive knows love can cure so many heartaches…if those who love have the courage to endure.
