About this ebook

Drexel Rayne, the Eighth Duke of Severn, has a bad ticker. Faced with certain death and the horror of his sleazy nephew, Nugent Templecombe, inheriting his lands and title, Drex is desperate for a cure, any cure.

Camille Torrington and her cousin, Edmund, have invented a vest containing a device they think will shock a bad heart into beating like it should. When Edmund visits the Hellfire Club, a place where all your filthiest sexual dreams may be answered, he finds love, and a possible candidate for Cam’s new invention.

Can the Duke be saved? Will Cam’s vest work?

Take a walk through Steampunk London and enjoy this quick ride, filled with steamy sex, wild adventure, and true romance.

About the author

I always loved reading so it seemed natural to write. I became a reporter where I learned a lot about people, to be a better writer and to edit my own material. I attended writers’ conferences where I honed my novel writing skills. I’ve lived all over the world, worn many hats, been many different people and learned a lot of crazy skills. Horses were always my passion. I worked as a groom and a handler before I became a reporter. I now live in the country with four dogs and my husband. It’s quiet and I can paint and write to my heart’s content.
