Cynthia Wright

Fall in love with a "mesmerizingly wicked" hero...

GUARDED HEARTS

A French pirate of smoldering passions, Justin St. Briac has vowed never to marry. However, when his manipulative mother beckons him to her deathbed in Cornwall, he succumbs to her plea that he take a bride – devising an elaborate charade to appear to grant her dying wish.

The old woman’s days are numbered, after all, and soon he’ll return to his life of unfettered romantic conquests and adventure...

A PRETEND MARRIAGE

Mouette Raveneau, once the toast of the London ton, has been ruined by her dead husband’s crimes. When she reluctantly takes refuge in Cornwall with her two adolescent sons, Justin hires her to help carry off his grand scheme.

Soon, however their "business arrangement" begins to feel like what Justin has avoided his whole life--a real marriage, one where he could lose something much more valuable than his freedom...he might actually lose his heart.

His Make-Believe Bride

He was impossible! Yet utterly irresistible...

Renowned as a bold corsair and seducer of women, Justin St. Briac has spent the last decade as a married man. He adores his wife, Mouette, but as he ages, he chafes against the constraints of domestication and longs for another reckless adventure on the high seas.

Mouette Raveneau’s life among the London ton was in tatters when she fled to Cornwall and married Justin. Now, years later, she has an opportunity to return to society and repair her broken reputation. For the sake of her adult son, Charles, she agrees...but what of her untamable pirate husband?

If the volatile Justin does accompany Mouette to London, she fears he will prove incapable of conforming to the haut ton’s rigid code of conduct. And when Mouette receives assistance from a caring, respectable nobleman, Justin burns to challenge his rival to a duel to the death.

As marriage becomes the most reckless adventure of all, will these two lovers dare to join forces...or turn their backs and walk away for good?

Her Impossible Husband

A lost rogue…

A noble lady on the run…

Radiantly independent Frederica Redfield was tempted to indulge in romance with just one man, but Anthony St. Briac has gone missing halfway across the world. Now five-and-twenty, Freddie aspires to do scientific research. When her debt-ridden father coerces her to wed an aged, wealthy baron, she plots to escape and assume a bold new identity.

Alone together in a treasure-filled library…

In disguise as a male professor, Freddie takes a position in Anthony St. Briac’s empty Mayfair home, cataloguing the rare fossils sent home during his five-year voyage with Darwin. When, late one night, a threatening yet magnetic stranger appears in the library, Frederica is stunned to discover that her secret, lost love is very much alive, and all her careful plans are in wild disarray.

As Anthony and Freddie join forces, facing peril to solve the mystery behind his near-fatal accident, passion flares white-hot. Yet can these fiercely independent lovers dare to risk their very hearts and discover the treasure of lasting love?
