About this ebook
Ever ready to do the right thing, The Emperors of London act bravely—and when it comes to matters of the heart, impetuously…
Despite her cover as the daughter of the land steward for Lord Malton, Marcus Aurelius, spirited Viola Gates is tied by birth to the treacherous Jacobite legacy. Not that this keeps her from falling for the dashing Lord from afar. Despite his staid demeanor, Marcus is devastatingly handsome—and hopelessly beyond her reach. Then Viola’s father is mortally wounded and her secret identity revealed, sending her straight into danger’s path—and Marcus’s arms…
For years, he’d only known her as a wild child, the tempting—and forbidden—daughter of his trusted steward. But when Viola’s life is threatened, Marcus must act as duty—and his barely contained passion—dictates. Ferrying the bold beauty on an eventful journey to safer quarters, he offers her the protection of his name. Their tempestuous union might succeed in vanquishing their enemies, but will the chivalrous lord and his unsuitable wife surrender to the power of love?
“Lynne Connolly writes Georgian romances with a deft touch. Her characters amuse, entertain and reach into your heart.”—Desiree Holt
“Plots, deviousness and passion galore…a truly enjoyable read.”—Fresh Fiction on Temptation Has Green Eyes

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The novels in this series are predictable, sexy, and fun. Great for light summer relaxation. I love the consideration the male lovers provide their womenfolk and the explicitness as a tool for helping teach sexual satisfaction. However, they do reinforce the "knight on a white horse" myth, so I wouldn't recommend them for forming young minds.
