He patted his pocket, feeling the neat packet of envelopes tucked there, then climbed into his waiting carriage. Caroline and her son were waiting. He’d promised Matthew he’d show him the tigers, at least the ones behind bars. If nothing else, Matthew had certainly been a delight in Ashton’s homecoming. Perhaps as the boy matured, Ashton would be able to teach him how to spot the predatory tigers who didn’t wear stripes to warn of their ferocity. Tigers that hid behind serene human faces but had the ability to carve one’s heart with a single swipe. Tigers like Matthew’s mother.

The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie
Most women heeded the warnings.
One woman was tempted by them ...
It was whispered all through London Society that Ian Mackenzie was mad, that he’d spent his youth in an asylum, and that he was not to be trusted—especially with a lady. For the reputation of any woman caught in his presence was instantly ruined.
Yet Beth found herself inexorably drawn to the Scottish lord, whose hint of a brogue wrapped around her like silk and whose touch could draw her into a world of ecstasy. Despite his decadence and his intimidating intelligence, she could see that he needed help. Her help. Because suddenly the only thing that made sense to her was . . .
The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie

MADELINE HUNTER
Dangerous in Diamonds
Outrageously wealthy, the Duke of Castleford has little incentive to curb his profligate ways—gaming and whoring with equal abandon and enjoying his hedonistic lifestyle to the fullest. When a behest adds a small property to his vast holdings, one that houses a modest flower business known as The Rarest Blooms, Castleford sees little to interest him . . . until he lays eyes on its owner. Daphne Joyes is coolly mysterious, exquisitely beautiful, and utterly scathing toward a man of Castleford’s stamp—in short, an object worthy of his most calculated seduction.
Daphne has no reason to entertain Castleford’s outrageous advances, and every reason to keep him as far away as possible from her eclectic household. Not only has she been sheltering young ladies who have been victims of misfortune, but she has her own closely guarded secrets. Then Daphne makes a discovery that changes everything. She and Castleford have one thing in common: a profound hatred for the Duke of Becksbridge, who just happens to be Castleford’s relative.
Never before were two people less likely to form an alliance—or to fall in love . . .
