- The Spinster and Mr. Glover (The Revised Edition): Blind Cupid Series, #1
1
His male beauty moved her. His vulnerability touched her. His past horrified her. Longing for adventure, Anne Sommer, a spinster firmly on the shelf, does the unthinkable. She engages a man from the Blind Cupid brothel for several nights of scandalous pleasure. Anne wants the sensual memories to keep her company in the solitary years ahead. However, she did not expect the young man to move her in ways she had never imagined. Desmond Glover gives sexual gratification—for a price. Since scandal and poverty mired his orphan childhood, Desmond has learned to close off his emotions, particularly concerning his occupation. He did not count on a lonely woman to awaken his hidden passion. And touch his heart. Not only do the years separate them, but so do their social standings. Can Anne and Desmond cross such a chasm and find mutual desire—or lasting love?
- The Governess and the Beast: Blind Cupid Series, #2

With a new name and an eagerness to begin a new life, Lila Jenner answers an ad for a governess and embarks on an adventure she did not expect. Hiding secrets and a past she longs to forget, she is disappointed to find out she has been employed to be a companion of a different sort: To a man who embodies both beauty and the beast. Living in a gothic, crumbling manor on the edge of a North Sea cliff, Lord Simon Wolstenholme is cloistered from society. Simon realizes that he's been alone too long. Horribly scarred from battle wounds, the baron lives up to his infamous title, "The Beast of Stonecliff," in appearance and attitude. A storm rages outside, but it cannot compare to the clash of emotions between a lonely man and a distrustful woman. Lila and Simon bargain and agree to a brief dalliance. Secret desires are revealed, and hearts are laid bare. Many obstacles lay ahead of them until they admit their true feelings, though pride could destroy the fairy tale before it begins.
