Till Death Do Us Part
In 1888, a series of murders creates an atmosphere of panic in London. But not everyone feels the same: Miss Holy Gray has intelligence, heritage, beauty, and above all, curiosity. As the death toll in Whitechapel rises, Holy's interest in the tragic crimes grows, and with the help of Count Henry Gray, her twin brother and secret lover, the girl begins to visit the crime scenes to paint the mutilated figures of the women who perished under the blade of the mysterious killer. Meanwhile, news of Henry's impending and unexpected marriage puts the twins' relationship to the test -- and Holy feels pressure to find a suitor for herself. Her fate thus crosses that of Dr. Jack Fraser, and the attraction between the two is immediate and intoxicating. But as the couple's relationship deepens, Miss Gray must confront Jack's darkest nature while dealing with her brother's jealousy, possessiveness, and secrets, as well as the unwelcome presence of her future sister-in-law, Cassandra. Driven by her passions, Holy embarks on an irreversible journey among assassins, nobles, doctors, and evildoers, each at the mercy of their own perverse psyches and unique morals, to discover not only where her heart lies, but also what her true nature is, and how far she is willing to go to protect those she loves, while fulfilling her most disturbing and intimate desires. #JackTheRipper #1888 #London #CriminalRomance #Thriller
Before She Ruled (Before Series, Book 1)
In hiding as a maid, Princess Adelaide must resist the charms of the devilishly handsome Duke of Kingfield. But could he help her if she told him her secret? ***** Two years ago, Princess Adelaide was forced into hiding after her father, King William IV, was killed in a carriage accident that also took the life of her mother and brother. She suspects that the despicable man now on the throne of England--her uncle, Ernest--is responsible for her family's death, so she avoids his watchful eye by working as a maid for the aristocratic families of London. However, when she's employed by the dashing Duke of Kingfield, she soon discovers that he not only believes that the princess is alive, but also that she could be the key to saving England. Is Adelaide willing to come out of hiding in order to prove him right? Or are her growing feelings for him worth giving up her claim to the throne?

Her plan is simple: focus on her studies, secure a coveted place at the Royal University, and repay her family's debts. When she reluctantly attends a party and a mysterious bond awakens with Ashton-her infuriatingly arrogant classmate-her carefully laid plans are thrown into chaos. For reasons Elizabeth can't fathom, Ashton despises her. But Ashton's no ordinary student. He's a prince, secretly living among commoners to avoid the enemies plotting to destroy his family. As the king reveals there's more to Elizabeth's past than she knows, they realize the bond might not be the only thing connecting them. Bound by forces neither of them understands, and thrust into the dangerous world of court politics, secrets, and creatures thought only to exist in legends, Ashton and Elizabeth race against time to uncover the bond's origins. Rumors of war echo throughout the kingdom, and the force drawing them closer is too intoxicating to resist, yet too dangerous to embrace. Will this connection be their salvation or the undoing of everything they're fighting to protect?
