About this series
Batten down the hatches, murder and mayhem on board.
Posionings? A loose cobra? Someone tossing men overboard? In this Regency novella, nothing ruffles sleuth Lady Eleanor's feathers as she sorts through the clues to a rather unusual result. But is she sleuth enough to uncover the obstacles blocking two hearts?
Lady Bentwood admits, "Unnerving, to tell the story of my own undoing, but there you have it …" No matter the danger to herself, Lady Bentwood is determined to protect her 'Charlie,' a man too gallant to abandon her.
A rushed wedding, to rescue his childhood friend from scandal, Lord Bentwood is not sorry for it, until he becomes a murderer's target. Escaping death more than once is almost worth the danger. Each attempt nudges his wife closer until her past comes to haunt them both.

Becca St. John
Writing was a tool, not a toy, until a stay in a haunted hotel and a bookcase full of dog-eared romances. Hooked, Becca read old romances, new romances, both sexy and sweet, until her own tales begged to be written. Living in Florida, Becca divides her time between dreaming up stories, diving deep into history, kayaking, and swimming. Her husband gives her the space she needs by fishing in the mangroves and waterways or watching football (the English sort) with his British buddies. Becca and her hubby break the routine with adventure travel; though, at heart, Becca is a homebody believing there is no greater playground than inside the mind.
