Secrets and Scandals Volume Two

by Darcy Burke

Overview

To Love a Thief
Former constable Lord Daniel Carlyle thinks he's met the girl of his dreams, Jocelyn Renwick, until he catches her stealing from his mentor. Jocelyn vows to stop at nothing to recover her stolen treasures, but does that include risking a chance at love?

Never Love a Scoundrel
Labeled a lunatic and a reprobate, Lord Jason Lockwood finds solace in debauchery outside the realm of Polite Society. When proper debutante Lady Lydia Prewitt offers to help him reclaim his respectability, he sees what he's been missing. But can Lydia risk falling in love with a scoundrel if it means joining him in exile?

Scoundrel Ever After
When wallflower Audrey Cheswick runs away with England's most wanted criminal, she learns adventure comes with a price—not just her reputation or her virtue, but her heart. If Ethan Jagger can escape the hangman's noose and start anew, will she consent to love a scoundrel ever after?

About the Author

Darcy Burke is the USA Today Bestselling Author of captivating, compelling historical and contemporary romance. Darcy wrote her first book at age 11, a happily ever after about a swan addicted to magic and the female swan who loved him, with exceedingly poor illustrations.

A native Oregonian, Darcy lives on the edge of wine country with her guitar-strumming husband, artist daughter, and imaginative son who will almost certainly out-write her one day (that may be tomorrow). They’re a crazy cat family with two Bengal cats, a small, fame-seeking cat named after a fruit, an older rescue Maine Coon with attitude to spare, an adorable former stray who wandered onto their deck and into their hearts, and two bonded boys who used to belong to (separate) neighbors but chose them instead. You can find Darcy at a winery, in her comfy writing chair, folding laundry (which she loves), or binge-watching TV with the family. Her happy places are Disneyland, Labor Day weekend at the Gorge, Denmark, and anywhere in the UK—so long as her family is there too. Join her Reader Club.

Editorial Reviews

"With refreshing circumstances surrounding both the hero and the heroine, a nice little mystery, and a touch of heat, this novella was a perfect way to pass the day." - on To Love a Thief

Blog - Jess The Romanceaholic

"I loved the story of these two misfits thumbing their noses at society and finding love." Five stars. - on Never Love a Scoundrel

Blog - Marianna A Lust for Reading

"An excellent commentary on the power of gossip, but also a wonderful story about two people willing to overcome their differences and to trust in their love." - on Never Love a Scoundrel

Blog - Shauni Bodice Rippers, Femme Fatale, and Fantasy

"I loved the chemistry between the two main characters from the start of the book. Jagger/Ethan is not what he seems at all and neither is sweet society Miss Audrey. They are believably compatible." - on Scoundrel Ever After

blog - Jacquie Confessions of a College Angel

"A wonderful story, well written and heartbreaking, joyful and triumphant. A book that shows us we don't have to survive in the boxes others put us in but can thrive when we learn to fight for our dreams." - on Scoundrel Ever After
