A rogue ruined . . .
He is the Killer Duke, accused of murdering Mara Lowe on the eve of her wedding. With no memory of that fateful night, Temple has reigned over the darkest of London’s corners for twelve years, wealthy and powerful, but beyond redemption. Until one night, Mara resurfaces, offering the one thing he’s dreamed of . . . absolution.

A lady returned . . .
Mara planned never to return to the world from which she’d run, but when her brother falls deep into debt at Temple’s exclusive casino, she has no choice but to offer Temple a trade that ends in her returning to society and proving to the world what only she knows…that he is no killer.

A scandal revealed . . .
It’s a fine trade, until Temple realizes that the lady—and her past—are more than they seem. It will take every bit of his strength to resist the pull of this mysterious, maddening woman who seems willing to risk everything for honor . . . and to keep from putting himself on the line for love.

Rosalyn Landor’s lovely British accent and engaging delivery provide the perfect pairing for this appealing historical romance. Twelve years ago, handsome William Harrow, heir to the dukedom of Lamont, woke up alone in the blood-filled bed of his soon-to-be, and now missing, stepmother, young heiress Mara Lowe. Dubbed the “Killer Duke” and taking the name “Temple,” the disgraced duke has made his way by fighting in a casino. When the missing Lowe secretly reappears and offers him the opportunity to clear his name, the romantic sparks fly. Landor’s narration is direct, assured, and quietly appealing.
