Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only one who can help her is the man who broke her heart. Four years ago, Lady Caroline Astley took one look at Henry Greville, Viscount Thetford, and fell horribly in love, in that particular way you can only fall in love at the age of fifteen. He didn’t just reject her. He humiliated her. But now, in a stroke of rotten luck, he’s the only one who can help her. It turns out that the “paste” pendant she borrowed from her sister, Anne, was no fake. It’s actually an ancient Egyptian amulet, and now Anne wants to auction it off to save hundreds of widows and orphans. What Caro can’t bear to tell her sister is that the necklace was stolen from right around her neck. Caro has a few clues, but she doesn’t know an amulet from an obelisk, and the trail has gone cold. Guess who grew up in a house stuffed with Egyptian artifacts? Caro may despise Henry, but she needs him if she’s going to track down the thieves. Which begs the question of which is worse: letting down the orphans or risking her heart all over again. If you like sizzling Regency romance that makes you laugh and makes you swoon, give How to Train Your Viscount a try! Note: How to Train Your Viscount falls on the comedic end of the Regency spectrum; you might call it a Regency rom-com. The love scenes are red hot.

Book excerpt: Who killed Viscount Beaconberg? Lady Beaconberg’s a prime suspect: the money-grabbing snob of a wife would do anything to get further up the social ladder, and ditching a lowly viscount would free her for marriage to a much more esteemed nobleman. Or perhaps the killer was the viscount’s business partner, Sir Arthur, who’s been arguing in public and in private, desperate to wrest control of the racing stables fully into his own hands. As Theodore Caxton, the Earl of Calaway and his wife Adelia look further into the viscount’s suspicious death, more secrets emerge from the family’s past. Everyone had someone to gain from the murder. How far will the killer go to hide the truth?

When events separate them – one on a wild chase across the northern moors of England, the other into the heart of horse racing at York – can they each survive on their own? They cannot afford to be losers in this deadly game of murder, love and money.
