Sparks are sure to fly when a recovering scoundrel of a second son meets a woman of ill-repute.  Lord Marcus Bowles rides north to cool his heels. Banished to his mother's childhood cottage, he must stay scandal-free until his older brother finds a wealthy bride. One winter ought to be enough. But every cottage needs a housekeeper. It shouldn't be a problem that his new domestic is pretty, sports high hems, and low necklines. Or that said housekeeper travels under a false name. Miss Genevieve Abbott Turner is good at things like... Fixing mechanisms better than a man Putting to rights a run down cottage Quick with saucy quips And putting a man in his place His unusual housekeeper has a soft spot for horses in need, is on the hunt for her grandmother, and has a talent for illicit kisses.

It's been fun this year to see two very different heroes come into their own: Lord Marcus Bowles, a second son and Jonas "Bacon" Braithwaite, man of business for the Earl of Greenwich. Both men appear as key secondary characters in the Midnight Meetings series. Now they get their own books, but as men, they couldn't be more different. So, here's a reader poll for you. Which hero archetype appeals to you the most? A) A handsome wastrel, drowning in his unhappy but privileged life? OR B) A stoic blue-eyed commoner, once the village rebel, facing his past? Then again, maybe the cover helps you decide. Try this: Option A On Amazon OR Option B On Amazon There's another way to pick a man. Aretha Franklin sang her wisdom, telling us  It's in His Kiss. Let's put Aretha's wisdom to the test, shall we? Kiss A (the hero let's the heroine take over): She flattened a hand on his ches...
