A Lady Seeking Scandal
Lady Isabel Cameron has little use for marriage and propriety. Her dream is to study art in Paris. But her father has engaged her to a waddling, bankrupt, domineering lord twice her age. When her childhood flame Marcus Hawksley reappears—handsome, single, and socially snubbed—Isabel devises the perfect escape. She will solicit Marcus's assistance to destroy her reputation.
A Man With Nothing To Lose
Marcus has already felt the wrath of the ton, with his business as a stockbroker deemed unacceptable. But he is no despoiler of innocent ladies—until by chance, Isabel's improper advance leaves her the only witness against a lie that could truly ruin him. Faced with her father's demands for marriage, Isabel and Marcus agree to a wedding of convenience—and six months' tenure living as supposed husband and wife. But as the heat between them grows, what seemed a pretense becomes deliciously real. . .
Praise for Lady of Scandal
"A tantalizing tale. . .with sizzle and characters that engage readers' emotions." –Romantic Times

      Engaged to be married against her will, accomplished watercolorist Lady Isabelle Cameron decides to compromise herself with her childhood hero, Marcus Hawksley. The setting she chooses is an art auction featuring a valuable painting by Thomas Gainsborough. When stockbroker and art collector Hawksley is accused of stealing the work, Isabelle provides his alibi. She is instantly ruined, and they are forced to marry. Intent on finding the painting and the thief, they join forces and gradually fall in love for real. Gabrielle (Lady of Scandal, 2009) infuses her lively romance with a scintillating look at the British stock market and the life of a stockbroker during the Regency period as well as glimpses into the world of art with references to and tidbits about familiar classical paintings. Both the headstrong yet charming Lady Isabelle and debonair Hawksley will delight Regency readers.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2010, American Library Association.)
