Less Than A GentlemanMatthias Murray Thomas is many things: a freedom fighter, the heir to a sprawling estate, a soldier and a rogue—but her is certainly less than a gentleman. Which is why when he finds the delectably sassy redhead, Caroline Munro, in his bed (posing as a his heretofore non-existent fiancé), he poses as the mysterious (and sometimes dead) butler, Haversham, determined to ferret out the truth.
Caroline Munro is trying to hold together her war-torn family. But with a heavily pregnant sister, a feisty niece and nephew, and a brother, father, and brother-in-law who are currently M.I.A., her options are…unsavory, to say the least. So she poses as the wife to be of Matthias Murray Thomas—all the while endeavoring to spy on the redcoats who’ve taken residence in Loblolly Manor…with the help of the redoubtable “Thomas Haversham.” But as the threat level from the British escalates, so does the connection—and the heat level—between Caroline and Matthias. With war raging all around them and a serious case of mistaken identities, will their love be able to grow?
There is the common misapprehension in the world that artists, of which writers are a sub-category, are either able to wave a magic wand to achieve what they do without effort or time or that they are utter slaves to their muses. The truth, not surprisingly, is somewhere in the middle.
Title: PolishedIt seemed like they had everything, but they didn’t have Jack.On Goodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17970258-polished
Without question Spencer Hartley burns hot for his girlfriend, Rory, but his other desires are hidden down deep. He might blow things up for a living and climb mountains for kicks, but the scariest thing in his life is the truth about his sexuality.
Jack Rothman works hard and plays dirty. After long, demanding days in his family’s engineering firm, he indulges in the pleasures of silk restraints and fine wine. Lots of hot meaningless sex helps him forget that he’s suffocating, with no one to give him a reason to breathe.
When a catastrophic accident traps Spencer in a flooded subway tunnel with Jack, they need each other to survive. But something strong stirs down there in the darkness, and it’s more than their desperation to live. There’s a spark between them that’s impossible to ignore.
Rory Campbell would love to give Spencer the one thing he doesn’t have, the freedom to explore his secret desires. But how does that fit into her picture-perfect relationship? When Jack invites the couple to his sprawling Hamptons beach house, Rory realizes that she has secret desires of her own—the kind only Jack’s Dominant hand across her bare bottom can satisfy…
