A Season For Scandal Series

Scandal can be handled...

Captain  Maximus Harcourt, the unconventional tenth Duke of Alderidge, can deal  with tropical storms, raging seas, and the fiercest of pirates. But he's  returned home from his latest voyage to find a naked earl - quite  inconveniently deceased - tied to his missing sister's bed. And he has  only one place to turn. Now he's at the mercy of the captivating Miss  Ivory Moore of Chegarre & Associates, known throughout London for  smoothing over the most dire of scandals.

Miss Moore treats the  crisis as though it were no more serious than a cup of spilt tea on an  expensive rug. As though this sort of thing happened on the job every  day. Max has never in all his life met a woman with such nerve. Her dark  eyes are too wide, her mouth is too full, her cheekbones too sharp. Yet  together, she's somehow...flawless. It's just like his love for her,  imperfect, unexpected - yet absolutely true.

"Bowen  begins her Season for Scandal series with a non-stop murder-mystery  that sizzles with sexual tension. This suspenseful tale unfolds quickly,  and readers will be captivated by the well-drawn  characters who move  Bowen's inventive plot forward."

  -RT Book Reviews

"In  her latest, Kelly Bowen offers up a vibrant, clever heroine in Ivory  Moore — think Olivia Pope in a corset. The romance here is deeply  satisfying, and Bowen excels in writing secondary characters and  scenes.  What’s more, the nooks and crannies of this book are  delightful, much like those in our real world, perfect to be discovered  alongside true love."
 -Sarah MacLean for the Washington Post

Love takes the stage...

Elise  deVries is not what she seems. By night, the actress captivates London  theatergoers with her chameleon-like ability to slip inside her  characters. By day, she uses her mastery of disguise to work undercover  for Chegarre & Associates, an elite agency known for its discreet  handling of indelicate scandals. But when Elise is tasked with locating  the missing Duke of Ashland, she finds herself center stage in a  real-life drama.

Noah Ellery left the  glamour of the London aristocracy to pursue a simpler life in the  country. He’s managed to avoid any complications or entanglements—that  is, until he lays eyes on Elise and realizes there’s more to this  beautiful woman than meets the eye. But when Elise reveals her real  identity—and her true feelings for him—the runaway duke must confront  the past he left behind . . . to keep the woman he loves forever.

Their love was always in the cards...

He  should have thrown her out. But when club owner Alexander Lavoie  catches a mysterious blonde counting cards at his vingt-et-un table,  he's more intrigued than angry. He has to see more of this beauty -  in  his club, in his office, in his bed. But first he'll have to devise a  proposition she can't turn down.

Gossip said he was an assassin.  Common sense told her to stay away. But Angelique Archer was desperate,  and Lavoie's club offered a surefire way to make quick money - until she  got caught. Instead of throwing her out though, the devil offers her a  deal: come work for him. Refusing him means facing starvation, but with a  man so sinfully handsome and fiercely protective, keeping things  professional might prove impossible . . .

 Lady Charlotte Beaumont has spent her whole life being ignored. By her  parents, her brother, even the servants. So she was secretly able to  develop her talent for painting well beyond the usual watercolors. Too  bad no one will let her actually use it-women are rarely accepted into  the Royal Academy. But when a connection at the Haverhall School for  Young Ladies gets Charlotte her dream commission, she'll do whatever it  takes to make it work. Including disguising herself as "Charlie."

Flynn  Rutledge has something to prove. His lowly upbringing is not going to  stop him from achieving his artistic dreams. This commission is the key  to his future, and his partner, an unknown youth in oversized clothes  who is barely old enough to shave, doesn't exactly inspire confidence.  But Charlie does inspire Flynn's artistic passion-something he worried  he might have lost forever. For all his street smarts, nothing can  prepare Flynn for the shock of Charlie's true identity. He doesn't care  that she's a woman, but a lady of the ton is a different matter  altogether...
