Earlier this year, I received the rights back to my first novel which was published in 2008. I'm excited to announce the rerelease of Lady's Wager, a story of an heiress, a Viscount and a wager which leads to marriage. I've heightened the emotions and deepened the internal conflicts in this new version of my sweet, traditional Regency romance.
I hope you'll please check it out.

Charlotte Stuart is an
heiress dedicated to charitable causes who's been betrayed by the false love of
a fortune hunter before. Ridiculed by Paris society for her mistake, she vows
never to fall victim to the weakness of love again. Driven back to England by
the collapse of the Peace of Amiens, she enters London society and meets Lord
Edward Woodcliff, a handsome Viscount in straightened circumstances. Falling
for Edward means risking being humiliated again.
Edward has come to London to
find a wife. Made leery of marriage by his father’s disastrous second marriage,
Edward feigns poverty in order to find a woman who loves him and not his
wealth. He loses his heart to the independent and spirited Charlotte, but her
fear of being betrayed, and his hesitation to make a matrimonial mistake, prove
difficult to overcome.
All
seems hopeless until Edward challenges Charlotte to a wager. If he wins, he
gains her hand in marriage. If he loses, then Charlotte is free of him.
Charlotte accepts the wager only to lose her hand and her heart to Edward. Now
Charlotte must put aside her fears of being betrayed by love long enough to let
Edward into her life and admit he is the man of her dreams.
