An Intriguing Proposition (novella length) takes you on a fast-paced carriage ride through the streets of Victorian Boston.

Insidious blackmail, the threat of foreclosure, and a fake engagement - all in one week!

Elise Malloy will do anything to protect her well-bred Boston family - even marry a stranger! Faced with overwhelming debt and threatened by the man she trusted, she fights to save her home from foreclosure and her beloved brother from ruinous disgrace.

What a chowderhead!

Once upon a time, upright banker, Michael Bradley did the unthinkable. He humiliated the lady whom he greatly admired. Now, he only wants to make amends by helping her out of a sticky situation and tell her his heart's true intentions.



Someone has an old score to settle.

When villainy of the worst kind seeks to destroy the Malloy family - and trap Elise in a loveless marriage - can Michael convince Elise to accept his own Intriguing Proposition?
