She didn’t mean to fall for his father.Miss Susannah Hynde never planned to seduce a duke. But when her childhood crush turns out to be a scoundrel of the worst sort, she steals away with a secret physic — brewed by a brilliant friend and laced with her own untouched blood — and marches it across the garden to save his ailing father.Alaric Morrow, Duke of Raimbeaucourt, expected to die of syphilis in solitude. He did not expect a bespectacled wallflower to barge into his study, dose him with occult medicine, and awaken every dormant part of him. Including one he thought long dead.The cure works. Too well. Now the duke can’t stop thinking about Susannah’s sweet blood…or how desperately he wants to sink his fangs — and something else — into her willing, untried body.His Grace’s Scarlet Pleasures is an unapologetically filthy, fast-burning, bite-sized 12,000-word Regency romance featuring a forward ingénue with a secret formula, a once-dying daddy duke with a monstrous appetite, an unlikely amount of fainting, a cherished pet squirrel, and the second confirmed case of steamy vampirism in the British peerage. less
