They met in fire, burning with a passion for each other, but when the truth is known will their love turn to ashes? Eleven years ago Lord Zachary Noble, the Earl of Harrogate, was involved in a scandal which rocked Society. It resulted in the loss of his reputation and being ostracized and held in contempt by those who mattered to him. His best friend. His family. No woman would even consider marrying him. All of it gone because of the false accusation levelled at him by a young woman he barely knew. All these years later Zachary’s good name has at last been restored to him after the real culprit is finally found and punished for the crime. Lady Rissa Spencer is very like her father, Magnus, the Duke of Weston, in that she is both determined and steadfast once she sets her very stubborn mind on something, or someone. And she has set her heart on Zachary. Zachary appreciates that Rissa is beautiful, as well as vivacious and intelligent, but she is also the very last woman he should ever allow himself to fall in love with. Nor will Rissa wish for his love once she becomes aware that the scandal in Zachary’s past is connected to her family and the stepmother she adores. Unfortunately the past has a way of intruding into the present, and when it seems Rissa’s very life might be in danger, Zachary is determined to protect her. No matter what the cost.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE GHOST (Ruthless Regency Dukes 6) is the sixth and final book in USA Today and Amazon International #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, latest Regency series. Six Dukes, bound together by their friendship and loyalty. When one of them is murdered, the five friends remaining are each given the task of investigating one of the five officers suspected of being responsible for the killing. The man had been prisoner for so long he no longer had any idea whether it was night or day. The room where he was being kept was below ground and had no windows. It was bare of all comforts except for a pile of dirty and lice infected straw in one corner and a single blanket to cover himself with during the worst of the cold. He had tried, at first, to keep track of time, but as the days, weeks, months passed, they had all merged together. The monotony was broken only by the haphazard delivery of a plate of the most basic of foods and a jug of water by a surly and silent man whose clothes appeared to be as ragged as his own. The smelly bucket in the corner of the room was removed only once a week. The last thing he remembered, before waking in this hellhole, he had been deeply entrenched in the battle at Waterloo. He recalled being run through with a sword, and then struck on the head. Since then, there had only been this room, the pain as his wound oozed an unpleasant pus before finally healing, near starvation, and the bone-deep cold. At first, he had been sure his friends would find him, and he would be rescued from this living hell. But he no longer held out that hope, knowing they must all believe him to be dead. He had been abandoned, and was now forgotten. Even, it seemed, by the woman he had loved so deeply he would gladly have given his life for her. Had she mourned him? Cried for his loss? Or had she moved on when all hope had been lost? One thing he knew, when he was free, and he was determined he would escape, all who had wronged him would suffer the full measure of his fury.

He’d decided that long before the young and beautiful Sophie Hammond walked into his life three years ago. He has the perfect life, working for the security company owned by all six of the Steele brothers, and dating and bedding as many beautiful women as he wants. Why ruin that by settling for one woman? What does it matter if every time he sees Sophie Hammond he wants to drag her off to his bed and do wicked things to that delectable body? It just means he’s a normal red-blooded man, right? Wrong. Because when Sophie is attacked at a wedding they are both attending Rourke doesn’t hesitate to step in and defend her. To hell with his usual charm and sophistication, Sophie is his, damn it. His!

Something that is no longer an option when she’s attacked while attending the wedding of Logan Steele, Rourke’s twin brother, and Rourke is the one who comes to her rescue. Grateful as she is for that intervention Sophie has no intention of allowing Rourke to just step in and try to take over her life. Never mind that his kisses make her head spin and her knees weak.

Fireworks will ignite the sky and inanimate objects fly before these two stubborn people admit to their feelings for each other. Author’s Note: Beware of the very sexy & very alpha Steele brothers.

Being forced to recuperate by manning the offices at Steele Protectors, the family security company, is not improving his already short temper. Which might be one explanation as to why Logan, after having a particularly difficult weekend, is so rude to the beautiful August Harvey when she is shown into his office one wet Monday afternoon. The other reason could be that Logan is just naturally rude and impatient. Nor is his mood improved by what August Harvey has to tell him. August had thought she was doing the right thing by coming to see one of the Steele brothers when her friend Jenna disappears. But after only two minutes in the company of Logan Steele, August is seriously rethinking that decision. Logan might be one of the most dangerous and handsome men she has ever seen, and hotter than hell, but he’s also arrogant, rude, and just all-round impossible. But there’s no denying that Jenna is missing, and the Steele brothers are the ones that need to find her. Being treated as if she might have had something to do with Jenna’s disappearances is the last thing August expected. Until it’s revealed that she does…
