~Synopsis~
"The game is on with Pembroke’s little sister…" Lord Drew Framlington watched Miss Mary Marlow. The woman had been warned to keep away from him, but she had a little contrary in her soul. She had not been deterred. Perhaps she had a taste for bad hidden beneath her cold denials, or a liking for naughtiness in her soul – either of which appealed.
"Stop pretending you do not like me…" Lord Framlington had urged Mary, "Stop running..." Her body urged her to as much as he did. Something pulled her towards him. Something unknown and all consuming… and yet how could she disobey her father and her brother...

4 out of 5 stars ARC Kindle Copy

A charming, penniless rogue finds his match as he sets out to marry for money but instead finds love.
Lord Drew Framlington sets his sights for the beautiful Mary Marlow, the Duke of Pembroke’s little sister.  Needing money to pay off his youthful debts, he sets his aim for Mary who has a sizable dowry as well as beauty.  He slowly pays his seductive game as he leaves her wanting more than a kiss.

Mary knows she should stay away from him as his reputation as a rogue is well known.  Even her father and brother has worn her to stay away from her and that he is only after her money.  Bur she is drawn to him despite everything as he steals kisses making her want more as he disappears afterwards and showing up when least expected.

Finally falling for him as they end up married, things never go smoothly with them.  When Drew’s married sister turns to him help from her abusive husband, scandal quickly follows as her husband spreads scandalous tales of incest between them as he hides his sister from her husband.  Thrown in jail and not willing to tell where his sister is hiding, Mary must have faith in her husband despite the scandal.


Can these two be able to trust each other as they fall in love with each other?  Will Drew be able to move past his own beginning and forge a new future with Mary?  



 

~ About the Author ~

Jane Lark reads at The Festival of Romance, 2013Jane is a writer of authentic, passionate, and emotional Historical and New Adult Romance, and a Kindle top 25 bestselling author.
She began her first historical novel at sixteen, but a life full of adversity derailed her as she lives with the restrictions of Ankylosing Spondylitis.
When she finally completed a novel it was because she was determined not to reach forty still saying, I want to write.
Now Jane is writing a Regency series and contemporary, new adult, stories and she is thrilled to be giving her characters life in others’ imaginations at last.
You might think that Jane was inspired to write by Jane Austen, especially as she lives near Bath in the United Kingdom, but you would be wrong. Jane’s favourite author is Anya Seton, and the book which drew her into the bliss of falling into historical imagination was ‘Katherine’ a story crafted from reality.
Jane has drawn on this inspiration to discover other real-life love stories, reading memoirs and letters to capture elements of the past, and she uses them to create more realistic plots.
‘Basically I love history and I am sucker for a love story. I love the feeling of falling in love; it’s wonderful being able to do it time and time again in fiction.’
Jane is also a Chartered Member of the Institute of Personnel and Development in the United Kingdom, and uses this specialist understanding of people to bring her characters to life.
