Revenge is a dish best served cold . . . Or is it?
The Lady in Red
Trouble has come to the village of Kingston. A young nobleman has been murdered, and there are reports of a red-cloaked woman stalking the vicinity armed with a bow and arrow. It’s something that Myles Rutland, Duke of Beresford, didn’t anticipate he’d encounter on returning to his country seat for the first time in years. When his faithful butler is also killed, Myles vows to put an end to this lawlessness, including discovering the identity of the red-clad female who casts her shadow over the parish.
Lady Lora Putney still grieves the cruel death of her older brother. Her best friend and her father’s heir is gone, throwing her family into disarray, as it seems Samuel Hawkesbury, her hateful cousin, is set to inherit Winterbourne and will expect her hand in marriage. The arrival of the Duke of Beresford at his neighboring estate is another unwelcome development. Lora will never forget how she lost her heart to Myles only to be cut by him at a Society ball. But no matter. All she cares about now is finding the man who so callously shot Nicholas and delivering her own brand of justice…
Revenge of the Wallflowers includes 50+ books written by some of today's hottest authors, including award-winning and USA Today bestselling authors. New books will be released each month through February 2025. Lady Vengeance releases on August 13th!

The sequel to Truth or Lyon!
Mr. Quinton Prendergast meets an enchanting young woman whilst walking in Hyde Park, and wishes he could find such a girl to be his wife. But since ladies of the ton refuse to give him a second glance, he decides to employ the matchmaking skills of his distant cousin, Mrs. Bessie Dove-Lyon—otherwise known as the Black Widow of Whitehall, owner of the Lyon’s Den. Happily, Bess comes through, swiftly hatching a possible match to one of the Misses Steere.
When their elder sister’s reputation appears tarnished, Miss Augusta Steere and her twin sister, Delphi, must seek husbands posthaste. Being the eldest by mere minutes, Augusta is far from inspired by the list her father acquires from an unnamed source. If only she could be introduced to someone like the handsome man she encountered in Hyde Park.
Shock registers when Quin realizes Miss Augusta Steere is the girl in the park, and he hardly minds when she kisses him at Delphi’s entreaty, an act which forces a declaration of engagement and a hasty marriage. Nevertheless, Augusta’s feet grow cold when she’s whisked away to Kent and the man she’s dreamed of, hardly has time for her in reality. Could it be that she compromised him into marrying her to skirt her elder sister’s scandal because he’s wealthy but untitled, and he married her because she’s the daughter of a viscount?
EIGHT HUNTING LYONS, including PRETTY LITTLE LYON!
Where the world's most notorious matchmaker The Black Widow of Whitehall is Mrs. Bessie Dove-Lyon and her gambling den take ‘orders’ from wealthy woman and then targets the men who come into her establishment, rating them on their viability. If they meet her standards, she will trap them into marriage contracts by rigging the games they are playing.
The Lyon’s Den isn’t a usual gambling establishment – they bet on odd things, like drinking liquor that’s been mildly poisoned to see who passes out first, or feeding gluttons too much to see who will vomit first. There are traditional games, but it’s more known for it’s odd and sometimes ruthless games.
