Secrets of family. Secrets of hearts. Secrets of blood and pain.
Secrets can kill.
Maddy Whittaker, on the
shelf for years, never expects the man of her dreams will be the one she once
called a stick in the mud.
Banished from a country
party so she won’t ruin her sisters’ chances in snaring husbands, Maddy is sent
to visit a cousin named Simon Jespers, who is hosting his own Valentine’s
party. She expects three weeks of
boredom.
Gordon, Lord Musgrove,
expects he will propose to a biddable lady and live unhappily ever after.
He escapes his mother’s
country party (where the dowager Musgrove expects her only son to snare a wife)
for one last bid at freedom. He decides
to retreat to his friend Simon Jespers.
Gordon never expects that his friend will be hosting a Valentine’s
party. He does expect days and days of
boredom.
On arrival at Jespers’ country
manor, Maddy and Gordon meet for the first time. A quick flirtation finds them well matched in
mind and soul, and the flirtation changes into romance.
Yet a secret from Maddy’s
past threatens their future.
And a serial murderer
threatens Maddy’s life.
Can Gordon overcome past
secrets and present dangers to marry his perfect match?
The Dangers of Secrets is a romantic Regency murder mystery of
approximately 56,000 words.
The character of Gordon,
Lord Musgrove, was first introduced in A
Game of Spies, published in the fall of 2015.
Warning: While the romance is sweet, the murders have been
described as sordid. Unwanted memories
of abuse may be triggered. Please be
cautious.
