BLURB:

 

Follow the gentlemen of the Tenet Club— an elusive group of noblemen that investigates crimes committed by the nobility—on a rousing journey of romance, suspense, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

Viscount Langdon is torn between duty and desire. After his father’s death, he has every intention of resigning from the Tenet club when he meets Mrs. Adare. The lively widow with a knack for trouble piques more than his curiosity, and he agrees to one last assignment.

Mrs. Elizabeth Adare is on a mission to bring a smuggler to justice, and nobody is going to get in her way, not even Lord Langdon. With the aid of the maddening, yet intriguing lord, she follows the clues to a troubling discovery; one that could expose her own secrets.

After the investigation takes an unexpected turn, Elizabeth must choose between revealing the truth of her past and losing Langdon or allowing a murderer to go free.

EXCERPT:

“I hardly think listing your positive attributes is the best use of our time.” Elizabeth’s voice came out more husky than was comfortable. Every nerve inside her body screamed yes to Langdon’s flirtatious question. She squashed the unwelcome sensation. A few moments ago, he was berating her in a less than pleasant manner. What a contradiction he was: a man with many layers. If she knew him for a lifetime, would she uncover them all?

 

“What a pity.” Low laughter rumbled from him. He was standing close enough for the heat of his body to infiltrate her thin dress.

 

Elizabeth tried not to inhale the scent of sandalwood and man that invaded senses already heightened by the night's illicit activities. She resisted the urge to rest back against him and lay her head on his shoulder.

 

He had been rather abrupt with her, and by all rights she should be in a snit over his earlier callousness.

 

Should be.

 

But she found herself drawn to him regardless of his surliness. He kept her on her toes, and she enjoyed their back and forth no matter how contentious. “I need a few more minutes to look.”

 

REVIEW

Elizabeth & Langdon

Oh how I adored Elizabeth. She is sweet, caring and just one amazing woman especially in this time period. She does have a secret that no one has any idea about. Langdon is something else. One minute he is sweet and romantic and the next you want to strangle him. These two definitely heat the pages. These two will leave you only wanting more, and I loved how they keep getting into each others paths and when they are together the banter between them was so enjoyable.  So good and I look forward to reading more from the author!
