Genre: Historical Romance, Regency
Release Date: March 20, 2018
When a bluestocking spinster sets her mind to something…
Lady Patience Lane, daughter of the Earl of Desmond and legendary boxer Ivory Bess, grew up learning to fight, not how to mind her manners. She always expected she’d become a trainer like her mother, until injuries from the ring led to her mother’s untimely death. Now, she’s determined to save other families from the same heartache, by teaching others about the dangers of boxing. Nothing could bring her back to the world she left—until she meets a mysterious stranger who sets her pulse racing.
And a dark, dangerous lord interferes…
Sinclair Chambers, the Earl of St. Seville and known as “Sin” to his cohorts, inherited an insolvent estate. He has to make money, and fast, or his tenants will starve. The prize purses from the bareknuckle mills will go a long way to solving his problems, if he can win them. To be a success in the ring, he needs the best trainer, and Patience Lane is the best there is—all he has to do is convince her that he’ll only fight once.
They just might find their happily ever after in each other’s arms.
The more time Sin and Patience spend together, the closer they become. Soon, Sin’s thoughts are less about winning in the ring, and more about winning Patience’s heart. But can a relationship born out of wicked deception stand the test of time?

Excerpt
Perhaps she should have knocked.
Or, preferably, remained safely
abed.
Before her stood a man, not one
of her brothers that she still pictured as boys even though they were two and
four years her senior, but instead a true man—stripped to the waist, his back
to her.
Thank the heavens above for small
miracles.
But to deny that her heart
skipped a beat—or ten—would be preposterous. In fact, as Patience stood,
unnoticed, studying the man now looking out Merit’s open window, she wondered
if her heart would ever beat a normal, steady rhythm again or if her skin would
ever cool enough to need an overcoat or shawl. It was only when her lungs began
to burn that she realized she’d held her breath since opening the door, a call
of greeting stuck in her throat.
One utterly forgotten.
So intent on the window, the man
failed to notice he was no longer alone.
There was no denying the
stranger’s presence—an unfamiliar masculine air filled the room. It was both
intriguing and frightening. Certainly, she’d witnessed men in various stages of
undress, but this goliath was different. Never had Patience been so utterly
aware of her own body, while distracted by the sight of another’s chiseled
form. Her hands itched to reach out at the same time they should be raising to
cover her exposed flesh, veiled only by her thin nightshift.
