Blurb for A Gentleman and a Rogue
Lady Keira Russell is
destined to bring compressed natural gas to Britain. Her inner courage and
mental toughness rarely falter – except when Prince Edmund Windsor is involved.
Edmund of Wales is from the future. His last jaunt through history muffed up the time line. Now, he's here to set it straight and win Keira's heart.
For Keira, if it isn't one obstacle, it's another. Queen Victoria has sponsored a competition to find a cleaner fuel source than coal. Keira's father is trying to build a windmill and the Ridgecrofts are working with gasoline. Then there's Edmund, whose sensual kisses and heated stares distract her down to her bones.
Keira has a choice: trust Edmund's notorious mischief-making or put her faith in Queen Victoria to make the right decision, but if Keira makes the wrong choice, the future of Great Britain will be changed forever.

Excerpt from A Gentleman and a Rogue
The song ended and Edmund grabbed her hand, tugging her
toward the nearest hallway. At first, she wanted to protest; call out for her
father and defy Edmund's wishes, but then reason kicked in. She wanted -- no,
needed -- answers. And, she had plenty of questions.
They entered the main wing, and passed two rooms before
Edmund opened a door and dragged her inside. Books littered the shelves. The
library. A beam of light from a full moon shined through the window, casting
Edmund's features in sharp, contrasting shadows. He leaned against the door and
crossed his arms. His eyes narrowed, giving his expression a dark, hard edge.
He looked like a devil in this moment. She steeled her shoulders, ready to do
battle with him.
Silence grew between them as they both set their postures.
Damn Edmund. She wanted to kiss the devil senseless. Thankfully, she still had
her wits.
"What are you doing with Jonas Byron?" Edmund's
voice was cold and exact.
"Dancing." She surprised herself with the ease of
her retort.
"Looked more like flirting to me."
"Jealous?"
A muscle twitched in his jaw. "No."
"You are a horrible liar."
"Keira, you can't trust him."
She placed her hands on her hips. "Curious, you're the
second man tonight to tell me that."
"Grayson has your best interests at heart. You need to
listen to him."
"He's been missing for four years." She paused,
glaring at him. "Like you have. And I thought you weren't coming
back."
"I'm here now, and I'm not leaving you again."
She tilted her head and laughed. Oh, yes, he'd leave her
again, and she had no intention of letting her heart get broken.
Edmund lunged forward, placed his hands on her waist, and
pulled her against the length of his hard, muscled body, trapping her arms
between them so her hands rested on his chest. His emerald eyes flamed with
desire. Her heart turned over in response. His unique scent, spice and
currants, weakened her resolve. As her memories flooded through her mind, her
lips ached for his.
"God, Keira, don't test me like this."
