Historical
Jack the Ripper. The name strikes fear into the hearts of those living in Victorian London. Preying on innocent women, the mysterious murderer slinks along the cobblestoned streets undetected and disappears without a trace into the night. Diana Ashdown. Beautiful and adventurous, she never wanted to be married off and trapped in a marriage she didn’t choose. She longs to see the world and write about it, but in 1888, her opportunities to become a journalist are limited. Living in a lavish, gloomy home and married to the handsome, but cruel and coldly distant Lucian Ashdown, the Marquess of Aberaeron, Diana’s only job as a wife is to care for the children from the marquess' first marriage. But a chance encounter pulls her into the drama surrounding the murders in Whitechapel, and her investigative skills are put to use as she helps to unravel the deadly mysteries surrounding the Ripper. It isn’t long before Diana finds herself in the middle of the nightmare, with her own life on the line. As the murders continue and London is stirred into a panic, Diana realizes that the killer might be living closer than she’d ever imagined…even under the same roof. As she fights to save herself and London, Diana will encounter love, heartache, family, and blood. Lots and lots of blood.

*Book 3 in the Regency Series- can be read as a standalone.* Alexandra Whitlock grew up to be a romantic. However, upon her release into society at nineteen, she finds that it isn't all romance and balls. So, when she ventures to London at the ripe age of twenty for her first season, she is determined to not let anyone catch her eye. But, unfortunately, His Grace, Richard Kensington, Duke of Exeter throws a wrench in her plans. A devastatingly handsome, charming rake, she has never met a soul quite like him. When, somehow, she finds herself engaged to him for reasons far from love, she can't help but wonder whether loving him is a possibility.
