The first two books of the Award-winning Merry Men Quartet, plus a bonus prequel short story!
Under the Mango Tree
Lakshmi is a good 18th century Indian girl who should not be avoiding her chores and enjoying a mango while hidden amongst the high branches of the mango tree in her mother's garden. She truly should not be seen by a man who is not a member of her family - - an Englishman, no less. And she absolutely should not even contemplate speaking with this man. But Lakshmi has never been one to follow the rules. This time, though, it could ruin - - or make - - the rest of her life.
An Exotic Heir
Weaving a web of revenge can be satisfying, but dangerous to your heart.
London society is shallow and cruel, sending Cassandra Renwick running to Calcutta, the exotic seat of the British Raj. It's a fascinating place filled with interesting sights - including the dark and mysterious Julian Ritchie. But she never thought that an even greater heartbreak could be lurking here in this alien and enchanting land.
Julian has always been discriminated against for being only half English. He plots an intricate plan for vengeance with the innocent and lovely Cassandra as his pawn. But he soon finds that payback can become painful when the threads of revenge unwittingly turn into the silken bonds of love.
A Rake's Reward
A treasure lost...
American Sara Whately came to England with a single goal: recover a long-lost family treasure. Her father had long ago renounced his title and abandoned his country, but desperate financial straits call for desperate measures. Gaining access won't be easy. The jewels are hidden on an estate Sara's grandfather lost long go in an unlucky turn of the cards. And then there's the vexing, villainous, valiant Viscount Reath...
A jewel of a woman...
Sinclair Stratton, Lord Reath has always gotten everything he wants - money, privilege, and women. But after ten years in India, he's returned to England, ready to make amends for his youthful follies. He plans to return his ill-gotten estate to its rightful owner but the man is impossible to find. And despite still being one of the most sought after rake's in town, the bold American beauty he keeps encountering seems to be immune to his charms and dashing good looks.
