Ruthless
Book 15 of The Rakehell Regency Romance Series
Sorcha MacMurrough

Alistair Grant prides himself on being an incorruptible barrister who defends those who need it most, even if it means running afoul of the Tory Government. Suddenly he finds himself a criminal on the run, falsely accused of murdering his client in Newgate Prison.

The only witness to the crime is a handsome young man who gives him a lovely miniature of the most beautiful woman Alistair has ever seen, and sends him to The Three Bells tavern and brothel.

Viola Morrison, an impoverished gentlewoman, lives in a secret room in the brothel, hidden there by her brother Sebastian, who fears his dubious business associates would be even more of a danger to her than the ladies of the evening.

When Alistair comes to seek Viola, she is determined to help the attractive barrister discover the truth about who really killed his client.

When Alistair’s house and office go up in flames, Viola and her mysterious friend George realise there is far more at stake than simply bringing a murderer to justice.

When Alistair’s colleague Philip and his whole family are burnt to death in their house, Viola must follow her new-found love Alistair down the road of passion, death and revenge to the final, stunning revelation of the horrific conspiracy against them all.

An excerpt from Ruthless:
He blinked, drinking in the girl’s beauty. Never had he see a woman so fair. Her creamy skin, patrician features, lustrous green eyes, radiant skin, her mouth just made for kissing…
She offered her lips up to him shyly, and he kissed her with glee. He tasted honey, spring flowers, and a spark of the divine as his lips glided along hers.
He peeped his tongue into her mouth, deepening the kiss, yet knowing even as he did so that it would be impossible to stop. That he wanted and needed so much more. That he simply had to possess this woman, or die….
He touched every part of her body until he couldn’t even be sure which flesh was his, which hers. Her breasts, with their tightly ruched pink nipples, her delightful feminine core, thatched with tiny silky blonde curls, her slender hips and thighs.
It was all his, and not his. For even as he possessed her body, dark, sinister claws snapped and grabbed, snatching the girl away from Alistair no matter how hard he tried to cling to her….

Beguiled Anew - Book 18 of The Rakehell Regency Romance Series

The love story of Miranda Dane Lyons and George Davenant continues as George races against time to save the woman he loves from certain death. Miranda is determined to fight her way back to the man she loves, even though his secrets threaten any hope they may have of securing a happy future together.

But Miranda has secrets of her own, not least of which is her true identity as a wealthy heiress from a prominent family, not a country girl down on her luck as George has assumed.

Rather than allowing the Rakehells and her family to seek justice for all she endures at the hands of the cunning men who have been scheming to keep the couple apart, Miranda goes after the nest of intriguers who have wronged both her and all of the Rakehells ever since the war against Napoleon began.

Miranda is willing to carry her mission of justice and revenge right to the upper reaches of the shadowy halls of British power politics if it means keeping the people she loves most in the world safe from their nefarious plots.

As George and Miranda’s love grows through the adversity they share, so too does their danger, as the power-hungry plotters threaten to sweep aside the new King of England, George IV, and restore Napoleon to his former glory as master of all Europe….

Fresh up from the country to visit her brother in London, Miranda Lyons Dane gets involved in a daring prank thanks to the notoriously wanton beauty Georgina Jerome. The seemingly harmless game turns dangerous as Miranda is attacked by a cutpurse. Her rescue at the hands of the mysterious George Davenant leaves her feeling sure she is out of the frying pan and straight into the fire, for no man has ever made her feel the torrid heat of desire.

Yet George is only ever spoken of in hushed whispers, for he is reputed to be the most vicious criminal mastermind the capital has ever seen. Suddenly all of the assumptions Miranda had ever made about her life are turned upside down. George offers her the role as his leading actress in the ramshackle theatre he manages.

Despite her fears, Miranda takes the job, and finds herself growing ever closer to her enigmatic but handsome employer. George is a master of many roles and disguises, the only way he can ever keep one step ahead of the peril that dogs his heels. Miranda’s entrance into his cold, hard world brings a warmth he never dared dream could be possible for a man with his dark past.

Soon the forces which have forced George to make the most hellish choices of his life threaten to take from him the woman who is coming to mean more to him than life itself. Can George save Miranda, or will the two of them be torn from each other forever?

The wrong man!

Beautiful heiress Charlotte Castlemaine is just about to elope with the man of her dreams when fate takes a hand in the form of handsome Thomas Eltham, the Duke of Ellesmere. Only a few minutes in his carriage nearly proves Charlotte’s undoing.

Compromised by this passionate near-stranger in front of her father, she faces the prospect of certain ruin, until Thomas declares that they are engaged. Charlotte’s unbridled response to the Duke is bad enough; the fact that Thomas persists in making wedding plans even though he knows she is in love with another seems a disaster of the worse magnitude.

Thomas has admired Charlotte from afar, but little thought he would ever have an opportunity to marry her until he overhears his worst enemy plotting Charlotte’s ruin. Determined that Herbert Paxton will never harm another innocent young woman, Thomas secretly warns her father that Charlotte is trying to elope, and races to the appointed meeting place before it’s too late.

Thomas’s single kiss in order to make their supposed elopement look genuine sparks off an inferno of passion, jealousy, suspicion and revenge which can only have one outcome: the Duke, a former soldier, must fight for the woman he loves and all he holds dear in a cataclysmic battle that can have only one winner.

The question is, will Charlotte prove Thomas’s enemy, or ally? Can she ever come to love this stranger with kisses like fire? Or will she flee from the desire that blazes within her at his merest touch, scorching all reason and commonsense? Will Charlotte return to Herbert, or learn to trust the enigmatic Duke and help him in his quest for justice against the man who once tried to murder him?

Too Many Men?

Pamela Ashton finds herself driven to distraction by the
number of suitors
beating a path to her door now that she has come of age. From the
handsome but reticent Earl of Ferncliffe to the dashing but impecunious
Captain Breedon, she is confronted with a bewildering array of men all
determined to make her their own.

But does she want to be a mere ornament or possession of a
greedy fortune-hunter?
A breeder of children and the queen of knitting and tatting?
Or is she destined for something more?

Only the debonair local vicar Jonathan Deveril seems to see
Pamela as
something other than a curvaceous but empty-headed socialite with a huge
fortune. Is it possible that Jonathan holds the key to her future,
and her heart?

But as Pamela and Jonathan grow ever closer, the dark
forces from his
past begin to swarm all around the couple, threatening scandal and ruin
which will pull them apart forever. Jonathan is accused of betraying
Pamela in the worst possible way. Pamela must trust her heart and
love to seek the truth, and ally herself with Jonathan despite the censure
of Regency society if they are ever to defeat their enemies and secure
