Author Description

He already lost his good name. Can he afford to lose his heart as well? Silas Yorke is in hiding. After being falsely accused of murder by one of the most powerful peers in England, he has no other choice. But he itches for freedom. Concealment in the countryside was difficult enough, but to clear his name, he must assume a new identity and go to London. There, he courts real danger-the last thing on his mind is courting women. Until he meets Miss Easton. Arabella Easton has been raised with wealth and position-and no opportunity to make choices of her own. When her father allows her to join her cousin in London, she hopes to make the most of her opportunity. Her father might intend for her to make a match, but Arabella wishes to experience life rather than cede her freedom to another man. Yet, she is drawn almost immediately to the mysterious gentleman she meets at a masquerade. Being with him is exhilarating in ways she has never known. But is he the man he says he is, or is their romance doomed from the start?
