The Honorables Series

Don’t miss this compelling first novel in a dark and dazzling new Regency series by bestselling author Elizabeth Boyce. Grave robbing ain't no job for a lady . . . To pay off her recently deceased brother’s debts, however, Lorna Robbins must take drastic measures. When she happens upon a resurrectionist gang stealing his corpse, she does the unthinkable and joins the criminal outfit to save her family estate and her younger sibling. For the first time in her lonely, duty-driven life, Lorna finds herself leading a treacherous and exciting double existence. By day, she becomes a popular lady of the town, relying on society gossip to help her body-snatching gang. By night, she becomes the grave robber known only as the Blackbird. Surgeon and anatomy teacher Brandon Dewhurst relies on resurrectionists to bring him the specimens he needs to further his research on pregnancy. When his usual suppliers become unreliable, and then downright sinister, he's reluctantly drawn further into the black market. As Lorna and Brandon both target the same body - a pregnant woman who is still very much alive - they find themselves powerfully drawn together time and again while trying to maintain their own respectable facades. But this daring duo is courting danger, and romance is a complication neither can afford. Sensuality Level: Sensual
