‘Duty can also be pleasure, Lady Alyssa...’
When politician Benedict Tawny set out to save Lady Alyssa from a nefarious plot, he never expected to find himself trapped in a compromising situation with the alluring lady! Now duty demands he propose...and claim her as his bride!
Tainted by his illegitimacy, Ben knows he can’t give Alyssa the life of luxury she deserves. But if he can convince her to succumb to the undeniable heat between them, their convenient marriage might just lead to the love of a lifetime!
Hadley’s Hellions
Four friends united by power, privilege and the daring pursuit of passion!
From being disreputable rogues at Oxford to becoming masters of the political game, Giles Hadley, David Tanner Smith, Christopher Lattimar and Benedict Tawny live by their own set of unconventional rules.
But as the struggle for power heats up so too do the lives of these daring friends. They face unexpected challenges to their long-held beliefs and rigid self-control when they meet four gorgeous independent women with defiant streaks of their own…

For modern women it’s almost impossible to imagine the limited choices faced by women of the past. A well-born girl was expected to marry, ladies did not work and, like gentlemen, couldn’t indulge in anything as vulgar as earning money. So what do you do if producing art is what you were born for? Lady Alyssa struggles to fit into a world that neither interests her nor appreciates her talent. It will take an uncommon man to see the brilliance in this rough-hewn gem…
It’s also hard for our modern world, with its acceptance of out-of-wedlock births, to imagine the life-long stigma carried by a Regency-era individual born outside of marriage. Though well-born bastards, if recognised by their noble fathers, often did lead prosperous lives, they must always have felt a hunger to understand why, and a struggle to believe themselves equal to their peers.
Although Ben Tawny knows what he’s worked to achieve makes him exceptional, there are always mockers around to remind him that he wasn’t born a gentleman. When a quest to save a girl from his mother’s fate lands him in a marriage of convenience he must face all those demons—including a strong aversion to falling in love.
I hope you will enjoy Ben and Alyssa’s journey to love and fulfilment.
