Descrip­tions

David Worthington, vicomte de Fairly, a reçu un héritage très particulier et fort encombrant : une maison close ! Ne sachant trop comment gérer la clientèle et les pensionnaires turbulentes, il propose à Letitia Banks, jeune courtisane démunie, de diriger l'établissement. Elle lui paraît digne de confiance, alors pourquoi ne pas l'aider ? Cette femme mélancolique et réservée l'intrigue, l'émeut, et bien vite éveille en lui un désir brûlant. Bientôt, il n'envisage plus de vivre sans elle, mais le terrible passé de Letitia lui interdit de s'abandonner à l'amour.

Lord of Honor

Book 9 in the Lonely Lords series

David Worthington, Viscount Fairly, has inherited a brothel he does not want, but hesitates to sell for fear his employees will not be treated well by the establishment’s next owner. He hits upon the idea of hiring Letty Banks, a courtesan currently without protector, to serve as madam, but soon finds himself attracted to her on more than just a physical level. When serious harm befalls Letty as a function of her role at David’s brothel, he realizes he cannot continue to exploit a woman he cares for. He arranges a way for Letty to return to obscure respectability, and prepares to walk out of her life, only to find he cannot leave her undefended against the trouble bearing down from her past.
