The Rake's Daughter
The Rake's Daughter
Book #2 in the "Brides of Bellaire Gardens" series — coming July 26th

“An earl is forced to play matchmaker for the daughters of a rake in a smart and witty new Regency romance from the national bestselling author of The Scoundrel’s Daughter.”
THE RAKE’S DAUGHTER introduces a handsome, unmarried earl, his eccentric aunt across the way, two new young ladies and a bossy Miss Stuck-up to the Bellaire Gardens community.
Leo, Lord Salcott is furious when he discovers he’s been left the guardianship of the two daughters of a notorious rake, one of whom is illegitimate — and penniless. She’s also beautiful, outspoken and rebellious, and he has his hands full — in more ways than one.
THE RAKE’S DAUGHTER will be published on July 26th. I had such fun writing it, and I’ll be telling you more about the story and characters in the lead-up to publication.
