Michele Jaffe

A man out to save his own skin meets a woman who may be the end of him in a rollicking historical romantic mystery that “will utterly delight the reader” (Abilene Reporter-News).
 
 As one of Queen Elizabeth I’s most trusted spies, the daring Crispin Foscari never leaves anything to chance. So, he’s surprised when he’s told he has two weeks to clear his name of treason, or his neck will meet the executioner’s noose.
 
 Sophie Champion is a hero to women of London, dedicating her seemingly endless resources to free them from their bondage to men. But when her investigation into the death of her godfather places her in danger, she herself is liberated from danger by Crispin—also known as the notorious “Earl of Scandal.” Not that she would ever admit she needed his help.
 
 Even as his mind warns him to stay away from the seductive siren, Crispin offers a proposal. By day, they will pit their equally sharp wits against a calculating enemy, and by night they will fight their searing mutual attraction. But as they grow closer to identifying the killer, they grow closer to one another. Unfortunately, that is only going to make it easier for their foe to finish them both off.
 
 With peril, passion, and swashbuckling to spare, this fast-paced romantic adventure from “a writer to watch” is sure to keep you riveted until the thrilling climax (Publishers Weekly).

The Arboretti Family Saga

The Water Nymph

The “sexy . . . breathtaking . . . wonderfully original” mystery in which a murderer returns from the dead—and is hell-bent on killing again (Jane Feather, New York Times–bestselling author of An Unsuitable Bride).
 
 A stridently independent woman in sixteenth-century London, Clio Thornton’s interest in solving mysteries has put her at odds with her wealthy family. But given her coterie of unorthodox friends—and her pet monkey, Toast—that is nothing new.
 
 So, when she stumbles upon a grisly murder, she’s determined to investigate, even when all of her discoveries point to an impossible killer: the Vampire of London, vanquished three years ago by Viscount Miles Loredan—her cousin’s husband-to-be.
 
 Miles finds her theories impossible to believe. But intrigued by her passion and her beauty, Miles agrees to hire her and support her investigation. What starts as a professional relationship soon becomes personal—and dangerous. Not only because Miles is betrothed to another woman—but because Clio has become the Vampire’s next target . . .
 
 For lovers of puzzling mysteries, romantic histories, or just good old-fashioned sleuthing, this is a fast, fun read from “a writer to watch” (Publishers Weekly).
