If You Give a Rake A Ruby

Her Mysterious Past is the Best Revenge . . .

Fallon, the Marchioness of Mystery, is a celebrated courtesan with her finger on the pulse of high society. She's adored by men, hated by their wives. No one knows anything about her past, and she plans to keep it that way.

Only He Can Offer Her a Dazzling Future . . .

Warrick Fitzhugh will do anything to protect his compatriots in the Foreign Office, including seduce Fallon, who he thinks can lead him to the deadliest crime lord in London. He knows he's putting his life on the line . . .

To Warrick's shock, Fallon is not who he thinks she is, and the secrets she's keeping are exactly what make her his heart's desire . . .

Book two in the Jewels of the Ton series started out a bit slow, but turned itself around and was an enjoyable read. Fallon and Warrick are not your usual couple and I liked that about them. The adventure is fast paced and entertaining.  I look forward to the third book, Lily's story.

I need to read more by this author! I read the first book in a different series by her and really enjoyed it so I'm guessing I will like this one as well. Plus, I love that cover!
