Penelope Cavanaugh, widow of the sixth Marquess of Huntley, is regarded by London society as the perfect wife and mother. With her upcoming wedding to the fabulously wealthy, but oh-so proper Duke of Kirwood, she’ll soon be the perfect duchess. But the accidental discovery of an old book offering lessons about the pleasures to be had in the bedchamber sparks Penelope’s desire to experience true passion before settling down into marriage again. Who can Lady Perfect trust to be her tutor?
A rake without redemption...
Reviled by society for gambling away his family’s fortune, Viscount Weymouth is just days away from debtor’s prison when he receives a mysterious summons and a most improper offer. In exchange for teaching her lessons in sensual pleasure, Penelope will give Weymouth the money he needs to reclaim his heritage. But will twenty-one nights really be enough to satisfy their need for each other?
‘The Mysterious Mr. Heath’
London solicitor Laurence Heath protects the secrets of the realm’s most powerful lords and ladies. But Heath is living a life of dangerous deceit, and now the mysteries of his past are threatening to destroy the only love he’s ever known…
Praise for Mr. Heath
"...The worldbuilding is well done, the characters are very real and three-dimensional, and the plot is intriguing. The problems between the main characters are very realistic to that time period and extremely understandable from all the viewpoints. Ms. Atwell is to be congratulated for thinking of a basic premise from which these outcomes would flow so obviously, yet lead to so much future angst. The book is engaging and well written, flowing smoothly throughout. The sex scenes are gripping and hot.”
