A Gentleman's Scheme
(2024)(The second book in the In Times of Scandal series)
A novel by Veronica Swan
“Continuing on without you is a torture that I fear will bring about its own destruction”.
The Duke of Somerset, Frederick Peyton, is revered in London's elite circles as a paragon of virtue. But when night falls over the city, a different side of the Duke emerges, one shrouded in shadows and secrets. To safeguard his reputation, he's prepared to go to extraordinary lengths, including taking Madalene, a sharp-witted commoner who has stumbled upon his dark dealings, under his protection.
Madalene should have fled London after accidentally hearing something she shouldn’t have, and her delay will cost her. In a desperate effort to save herself, she will strike a deal with the devil himself; an introduction to high society and his secret will die with her. But a tantalizing taste of freedom and passion will leave her yearning for more.
Despite Frederick’s best efforts to stay away from Madalene, her presence haunts him in the most sinful way. In a chase of lust and deception, they will find themselves drowning in the waves of desire. But in the time of lavish balls and scandal sheets, nothing stays hidden in London for long. Can Madalene and Frederick weather the storm, or will their secrets lead to their undoing?
“A Gentleman��s Scheme” by Veronica Swan is a steamy historical Romance staged in the scandalous society of London, where passion, lust, and danger make for an intoxicating combination. Intrigue, lies, and grey characters set the stage for a phenomenal page-turner. Enjoy!
