The Somerton Scandals

The countryside is anything but quiet.

Banished to Yorkshire after another act of defiance, Gloriana Blakely expects a dull autumn—and far too much time near Alex Somers, her childhood nemesis.

Alex’s careless adventures have drawn the attention of dangerous spies. Confined to Somerton, he cannot even be certain which of the people around him means him harm.

Gloriana may be his most unlikely ally. As they work to uncover the danger, their familiar sparring begins to give way to a very different kind of temptation.
