Yet old enemies and new come out of the woodwork, seemingly intent on using whatever means possible to destroy their happiness. Not only is the legitimacy of their marriage called into question, a young man steps forward claiming to be a by-blow of Richard’s dark, wild past. Closer to defeat than he has ever been, Richard musters all his friends and allies to defend against this attack on his own ground. However, no amount of incandescent lovemaking and tender care seems to keep Rose out of harm’s way. Then a mutilated body turns up on their doorstep—and all fingers point at Richard.

About the Author

Lynne writes sensuous historical romance, and gives the reader a real flavor of what it was like to live and love in the eighteenth century. But she likes the twenty-first century fine, and she also writes paranormal romance set in bustling, modern cities. She lives in England with her family and her Mews, a cat called Jack. She writes surrounded by the dollhouses she enjoys making and filling. She escapes to the USA at least once a year. Hareton Hall is her thirty-fifth published title.
