An Eye for An Eye
Once a respectable, sought after bachelor and do-gooder, Edward de Vesy, the Marquess of Malden, took a fall to rival Satan’s. A single decision cost him everything, including the gaming hell he helped build. From past betrayals has sprung a new man—one who is merciless, cruel, and incapable of pain. Now, Malden is applying every lesson he learned from his partners on the art of ruthlessness and raising a fortune to build an empire. And he will have revenge against those who wronged him.

Righting a Wrong
Having watched her eldest sister perish, Miss Edith Caldecott is no stranger to loss. Society may be content to accept Evie's death as an unfortunate twist of fate. Not Edith. She spent years digging to discover who was responsible. Now, she’s taking matters into her own hands. To avenge her sister, she'll require the help of a man who has his finger on the pulse of evil.

An Unlikely Partnership
What begins as nothing more than a relationship born of vengeance slowly dissolves into something sinful, decadent, and dangerous as Edith falls deeper under Lord Malden’s spell. When further betrayals come to light, Edith realizes she’s crossed a bridge too far. But the damage is done as she’s found herself falling for the last man who’d ever give Edith his guarded heart.
