To Seduce a Sinner

In 1765 London, still recovering from being jilted at the altar by Miss Mary Templeton; Lord Jasper Renshaw is shocked further when Lady Melisande Flemming proposes to him. However, he quickly recovers and agrees as he figures at least he will do his title duty with an heir and a spare and he knows he has always liked Melisande.
Melisande is euphoric because her daring deed worked. She has always loved the world traveler, but hid her feelings form him. She also is the only one to notice the sadness in his eyes that she vows to reverse. Jasper finds his bride to be a willing excited participant in the boudoir and there for him when he suffers his nightmares about what happened at Spinner’s Fall. However, before he can tell her he loves her, he must uncover the identity of the traitor who caused so much destruction when he served in the military in the colonies.
The second Legend of the Four Soldiers historical romance (see TO TASTE TEMPTATION) is a strong tale starring a flawed hero who struggles with what happened in the colonies to him and his unit and the woman who loves him. Melisande shows her courage when she proposes and when she remains at Jasper’s side whether he suffers a nightmare or confronts a potential traitor. Fans of Georgian romances will relish this fine tale in which love helps a distraught man rise above the horror of the past.
