A Matter of Indiscretion: The Spy's Fake Bride

About this ebook
With his facility for languages and gift for diplomacy, Thomas Pearce is perfectly suited for his recent position in the Foreign Office. Or so he imagines until he receives his first assignment. Instead of a safe consular post in a friendly country, Thomas is going to France to rescue Sabine Rousseau, the illegitimate daughter of Britain's premiere.
Sabine and Thomas must make their escape, and it won't be easy. Her uncle considers her a ticket to curry favor with Napoleon and won't let her disappear without a fight. To avoid detection, the couple must pretend to be amorous newlyweds and this proves the most difficult task of all. Because it isn't long before neither of them is pretending and every night, there's only one bed.
Editor's Note
Fake Relationship...
The “Lords of Lancashire” series takes a trip to France in “The Spy’s Fake Bride.” As its title suggests, there’s a fake marriage which leads, inevitably, to only one bed. Add in Barbosa’s flawless writing and attention to historical details, and “The Spy’s Fake Bride” is another satisfying( and satisfyingly spicy) historical.

I can’t remember a time when I didn’t want to be a writer when I grew up, but there were plenty of times when I wasn’t sure I ever would be. As it turns out, it just took me about twenty years longer to grow up than I expected! On the road to publication, I took a few detours, including a stint in academia (I hold an MA in Classics from the University of Chicago and was a recipient of a Mellon Fellowship in the Humanities) and many years as a technical writer/instructional designer for a data processing company. I still hold my day job, but my true vocation has always been writing fiction and romance in particular. To stay informed of my release schedule, you can sign up for my newsletter (which I only send out when I actually release a book) or follow me on Twitter or Facebook. As a matter of public record, I tend to be a lot more active on Twitter, but also a lot more political. I am represented by Kevan Lyon of the Marsal Lyon Literary Agency. I’m a firm believer that love is the most powerful force in the world, which that makes romance the most powerful genre in the world. Don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Not sure why but I love this series. I like being able to connect all the stories together. The story is long and winding for the amount of time it takes to read it. I loved the plot and story.
