Smuggler and the Society Bride, Silk & Scandal

Lady Honoria Carlow, leading Diamond of the Ton, is in disgrace. Her spirited nature has led her too far this time and she is, in reputation at least, ruined.

Indifferent to polite London society, Captain Gabriel Hawksworth is a gentleman in bandit's clothing. On the storm-tossed coast of Cornwall, this smuggler is reckless, sexy and sinfully tempting….

Gabriel is luring Honoria right back to what she's escaping—trouble! Only this time her impropriety won't be quite so innocent…

Julia Justiss

Long before embarking on romantic adventures of her own, Julia Justiss read about them, transporting herself to such favourite venues as ancient Egypt, World War II submarine patrols, the Old South and, of course, Regency England. Soon she was keeping notebooks for jotting down story ideas. When not writing or traveling, she enjoys watching movies, reading and puttering about in the garden trying to kill off more weeds than flowers.
