Convincing the Secretary & Blog Tour

Convincing the Secretary, the all new book in the London Legal series, is now available!

Business and pleasure is a mix no gentleman should consider. 

London Legal, Book 3

Lord Grayson Holloway goes after what he wants—be it in the law office on his clients’ behalf or in the bedchamber. His new position as partner puts him closer to achieving his goal of becoming the most successful solicitor in London. There’s just one problem—his new secretary. Broad of shoulder yet mild of manner, Edward tempts Gray like no other. Yet the young man barely notices him.

Edward Fenton tries to be a good secretary, but being in Lord Grayson’s hard, commanding presence rouses Edward’s most forbidden desires. Wicked, naughty desires no gentleman should consider giving in to, let alone with his new employer.

Gray is more than willing to mix business with pleasure. But convincing Edward to take a chance on a future with him? That might be the most challenging case Gray has ever taken on.

Warning: Includes buttoned-up gentlemen who become undone, improper use of a desk, spankings, and a big bad lord who has a soft spot for his virgin secretary.

Convincing Leopold

Convincing Leopold, the 2nd book in the London Legal series, is now available...again!

Never get between a reformed rake and his lover.

Three months ago, Leopold Thornton gave up his old, indulgent lifestyle to follow the man he loves to London. But now that he and Arthur Barrington have settled down, doubts are creeping in.

Arthur is spending more and more time at his law office—with a handsome new secretary. And Arthur’s ex-lover wants him back. Desperate not to lose Arthur, Leopold resorts to the only trick he knows to convince him to stay—pleasure.

Arthur knew that life with Leopold would never be boring. But recently their evenings—and afternoons and mornings—have become decidedly more vigorous. Being with Leopold is amazing, but juggling demanding clients and a demanding lover leaves Arthur exhausted and worried perhaps he and Leopold aren’t suited after all.

As business keeps Arthur later and later at the office, Leopold’s demons begin to haunt him again. To heal their rift, Arthur will have to let go of his own past—and pull his lover back from the brink.

Warning: Includes a reformed bad boy who discovers a jealous streak, a solicitor who isn’t always so conservative, explicit male/male scenes in a variety of locations, a complete lack of inhibitions, and a generous heaping of angst.

Note: This book has been previously published. This is a second edition with minor edits. If you've already read the book, there is no need to purchase it again.

“...this book made me laugh, made me cry and made me love Leopold even more”–The Book Adventures of Annelise Lestrange

“I adored Convincing Leopold immensely.”– Prism Book Alliance

Convincing Arthur

Convincing Arthur, book #1 of the London Legal series, is now available...again!

A holiday in the country to indulge his wildest fantasies…

London Legal, Book 1

Arthur Barrington knows exactly what he wants. A practical man. Someone who values discretion. Commitment. In other words, someone like himself. His old friend, Leopold Thornton, an overindulged son of a wealthy viscount with a reputation for vice and debauchery, couldn’t be less of a good candidate. 

Yet when Leopold extends an invitation to his country estate, Arthur agrees. Perhaps a holiday with the sinfully beautiful man will help him get over a recent breakup. Then he can return to his thriving London law practice and resume his quiet life.

Ten years ago, Leopold learned the hard way that patience doesn’t always have its rewards. Now that he has Arthur all to himself, he isn’t going to let a second opportunity pass him by. And he certainly isn’t above using pleasure to tempt Arthur into his bed.

Leopold has only a few days to open Arthur’s eyes to the possibility that he’s the man Arthur is looking for. That his love is genuine—and he’s worthy of Arthur’s heart.

Warning: Includes a gorgeous bad boy who’s been in love with a conservative solicitor for a decade. Indecent acts in a forest between two hot men. Angst. More explicit sex. And expectations turned upside down.

Note: This book has been previously published. This is a second edition with minor edits. If you've already read the book, there is no need to purchase it again.

In non-news type stuff....Convincing Arthur and Convincing Leopold have been unavailable for 2-1/2 years. My original intention was not to have them be unavailable for so long, but such is life and the writing schedule. I'm super excited to have them re-release with Samhain, along with the new book in the series, Convincing the Secretary.

Convincing the Secretary

I have a pretty shiny cover and a blurb to share for Convincing the Secretary! This is the 3rd book in the London Legal series, and features Edward Fenton, Arthur's not-so-diligent secretary from Convincing Leopold. 

Business and pleasure is a mix no gentleman should consider.

Lord Grayson Holloway goes after what he wants—be it in the law office on his clients’ behalf or in the bedchamber. His new position as partner puts him closer to achieving his goal of becoming the most successful solicitor in London. There’s just one problem—his new secretary. Broad of shoulder yet mild of manner, Edward tempts Gray like no other. Yet the young man barely notices him.

Edward Fenton tries to be a good secretary, but being in Lord Grayson’s hard, commanding presence rouses Edward’s most forbidden desires. Wicked, naughty desires no gentleman should consider giving in to, let alone with his new employer.

Gray is more than willing to mix business with pleasure. But convincing Edward to take a chance on a future with him? That might be the most challenging case Gray has ever taken on.

Warning: Includes buttoned-up gentlemen who become undone, improper use of a desk, spankings, and a big bad lord who has a soft spot for his virgin secretary.

Here are the release dates for the first two books in the series. These two books are being re-released through Samhain Publishing with minor edits. So if you've read them already, there is no need to buy them again unless you just want the new versions with the pretty new covers.

(re-release)

January 12, 2016

Convincing Leopold

Convincing Arthur and Convincing Leopold are about Arthur & Leopold's relationship and should be read in order. Convincing the Secretary is a new book in the series and features a new couple. It takes place two months after Convincing Leopold and can be read as a stand alone title, though you'll likely enjoy it a tad more if you've read the other two books in the series.
