The Earl's Temptation
(2017)(The second book in the Rogues and Gentlemen series)
A novel by Emma V Leech
The Earl’s Temptation
ROGUES & GENTLEMEN: BOOK TWO
Alexander Sinclair, Fourth Earl of Falmouth, has a reputation for revelling in vice.
Wine, women and gambling are only one side of this dangerous man, for the Earl has a second life, leading a criminal gang, smuggling contraband between France and Cornwall.
⭐���⭐���⭐ ‘A fabulous historical romance […] Ms. Leech has provided readers with a well-written book with amazing characters. Alex and Celeste's story is loaded with drama, action, sizzle, humor and suspense. The Earl's Temptation is book 2 of the Rogues & Gentlemen Series but can be read as a standalone - this is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.’ ~ Amazon customer review
Seeking ever more risk Alexander often leads his men on their night-time missions. One unlucky night the revenue men appear, and the smugglers sail into a violent storm in an effort to escape, but the ship and all aboard go down. Barely alive Alexander washes ashore on the coast of France.
Enter innocent beauty, Celestine Lavelle, the daughter of a noble French family forced to flee their estate during the revolution.
Having lost everything, she must work in the kitchens of a coastal brothel.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘I loved the characters so much they are so complex and share a wonderful chemistry. Emma Leech created a world so passionate that evokes so much emotions you cannot put down this amazing steamy story’ ~ Amazon customer review
Desperate and alone, her future is besieged by sin.
The discovery of a half-drowned English smuggler on the shore will lead her heart in directions she never dreamed of. Alexander determines to save his beguiling rescuer. He plans her future should be full of everything that is good and honourable… but will the temptation to take her as his own be too hard to resist?
The second book of the acclaimed Rogues & Gentlemen historical romance series from Emma V Leech, the multi-award-winning Amazon Top 10 romance writer. Author of fan favourites such as Flaming June and Last Man in London, both listed in the 20 'Romance Reads You Can't Miss' in the Amazon Kindle Storyteller Awards 2018.
**** Warning: Contains both a feisty heroine and a classic alpha male, meaning you may encounter some mild swearing and mildly graphic, descriptive sex scenes. ****
