Meet Lord and Lady Smythe, England's preeminent spies. Their identities are guarded even from each other. After years of secrets and lies, their marriage is little more than a crumbling façade. But even love isn't as important as The Mission—to defeat Napoleon Bonaparte.But what happens when the mission is complete?
Meet Lord and Lady Smythe, out of work spies. Lady Sophia Smythe will scream if she has to attend another tea party. Lord Adrian Smythe will hit someone if he's forced to while away another evening in Parliament. What are secret agents to do when the war is over?
There's one chance left to get back into the game. The prime minister needs a murder investigated. The problem? Two spies. One position.
All's fair in love and war.

I have recently read THE SEDUCTION OF PHAETON BLACK by Jillian Stone. He is a paranormal investigator working for Scotland yard during the time of Jack the Ripper. It a different sort of historical romance for me. But one that I thoroughly enjoyed. I am looking forward to her next book in this series.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently loving the Spindle Cove series by Tessa Dare. Very witty, with great heros and heroines.
ReplyDeleteI really like Lorraine Heath's historical works. You should definitely read Waking Up With the Duke... LOVED that story!!!

What a great choice for your giveaway! I love Shana and once you've read the first sentence or two you don't want to put it down until you've finished it!
ReplyDeleteMy recent favorites were Between the Duke by Sophia Nash, The Secret Desires of a Governess by Tiffany Clare and new debut author Heather Snow's Sweet Enemy (which if you haven't read yet is one of the best books I've read by a debut author!).
Each of these authors will definately make you feel like you are in the same room as their characters AND listening on their conversations! Be prepared to be captivated!
My favorite is The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova because it's a vampire story blending history and folklore.
