Romance Historical

Dominic Breckland, Viscount Stratfield, came back to life amid the undergarments of Lady Chloe Boscastle. And that just wouldn't do. Caught kissing a baron, she had been banished to the countryside with explicit instructions to stay out of trouble. Having a dead man in her closet did not fit that direction.

Yes. Dominic was dead -- and he planned on staying that way until he got revenge on the man who had arranged for his murder. While he didn't relish the idea of bringing Chloe into his plan, he had little choice in the matter. Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on the day, it appealed to Chloe's sense of adventure.

But if anyone found out, she would be well and truly ruined in society. After all, kissing a baron was one thing. Consorting with a dead viscount in her underwear would cause her brother Grayson, patriarch of the Boscastles, to lock her away forever.

This second book in the Boscastle trilogy is terrific. Dominic and Chloe scorch the pages, a perfect fit for each other. Chloe, in particular, is a great character with depth and an attractive, charming personality. Read this book -- and don't forget to pick up a copy of the first Boscastle story, THE SEDUCTION OF AN ENGLISH SCOUNDREL. It's Nigel's story and you'll enjoy meeting the whole Boscastle clan. The third book is due in July.

SUMMARY

When Chloe Boscastle is caught indiscreetly kissing a man in a park, her brother Grayson–the protective patriarch of the Boscastle family–sends her off to a country manor to stay until the scandal in town subsides.

Soon after Chloe’s banishment begins, she is shocked to learn that her neighbor Dominic Breckland, the devilish Viscount Stratfield, has been killed in his bed. But she is even more stunned to discover the dangerously handsome “victim” taking refuge in her lingerie closet one night. By some miracle Dominic has survived his attack–and wishes the world to believe him dead. Can the alluring Lady Chloe keep his secret? Dominic uses all his masculine charm to persuade her as they work together to unmask his enemy. Of course, being caught sheltering a seductive scoundrel could further mar Chloe’s already tarnished reputation. But, really, what’s a little scandal to a lady in love?
