Madeline May, widowed and a mother at 26, is in trouble,
and there is only one man she can turn to for help. Someone
is blackmailing Madeline into doing things she is unwilling
to do by using knowledge they have regarding herself and
her late husband. Madeline has taken matters into her own
hands, which is why she has contacted Luke Daudet, the only
man who's made her feel like a real woman since her
husband's death. A year ago, Madeline and Luke indulged in
a night of passion, and then hardly spoke to one another in
public. Unfortunately, Madeline is now in dire straits, so
she must swallow her pride, hide her true feelings and ask
Luke for help. With a small child to worry about, going to
prison for murder is unthinkable.
Luke Daudet's responsibilities have become many with the
death of his father, but the secret and the heartache for
what occurred during the war in Spain keeps him on edge and
reckless. No matter what he is doing, the one night of
smoldering passion with the beautiful and responsive
Madeline May is always in the front of his mind. Luke's
past haunts him every day, which is why he does his best to
avoid Madeline. To his utter shock, when he receives a
letter requesting his presence at the home of the one woman
he needs to forget, Luke drops everything to see what is so
urgent. Luke never expected to find Madeline shaken and
pale with a confession of killing a man; his immediate
reaction is to protect her.
OUR WICKED MISTAKE, part of the Notorious Bachelor series
by Emma Wildes, is a stunning historical romance
with mystery, intrigue and hot steamy chemistry. Definitely
a must-read.
When blackmail turns to murder, Madeline May turns to the
notorious Viscount Altea, a man used to dealing with men of
ill repute, and a man she despises with every fiber of her
being.
From the very moment of their first meeting-and one
unforgettable night of passion-Luke Daudet knew she was
different. And when he received her fateful entreaty, he
knew he would not be able to stay away...
