Criminals, con men, tricksters and toughs; five men who dwell in the shadow realms of Regency London live with risk and reward as a matter of course. While adept at all the scandalous arts necessary to conduct daring robberies or build illegal empires, love has never been part of their repertoire--until five daring, spirited women show them that a heart is the only thing worth stealing...
Winnie Bloom is brave. Brave enough to resist the limits that her weakened lungs place upon her body and life, even if everyone else is determined to treat her as an invalid. But after a dramatic loss of consciousness at the Arcadia Theatre, her unwell state cannot be ignored--as well as her need to be taken to the nearest possible household in order to recuperate.
Unfortunately, the nearest house belongs to Jim Brightman. Jim Brightman, who Winnie has been in love with ever since she first set eyes on him... and who refuses, despite Winnie's best efforts, to see her as someone strong enough to be loved rather than merely cared for.
Jim is dangerously close to breaking apart. He's been desperately in love with Winnie for what feels like forever, concealing his sentiments as fiercely as he hides every other emotion he has. The woman's too weak to suffer his attentions, and far too wonderful to be tainted by Jim's criminal past and uncertain prospects.
But now that Winnie is in his house, in his bed and there for the foreseeable future, Jim feels a storm coming. Whether he or Winnie will be the one to cause the first lightning strike, who can say...
Lose yourself in this deliciously sensual slice of Regency escapism by Felicia Greene, the queen of quick-read romance novellas. With tortured dukes, teasing heroines and attraction that defies all decorum, these brief but beautiful tales will make any spare hour fly by!
This book is the third standalone in the Disreputables series, with plenty of faces from Books One and Two popping up. If you like misadventures, forbidden attraction and love that defies all odds, you'll love these quick, steamy Regency reads!
