A special discount for Regency Romance lovers

I have a bargain book to offer Regency Romance fans, but only for the next few days. It’s called A TREACHEROUS ENGAGEMENT, and here’s the story-

When you need to wed in a hurry, why not marry the first handsome, wealthy bachelor who comes your way?

Miss Phoebe Duvall’s papa is missing and she and her fragile aunt are in dire need of funds. Employment is one option for the fearless Phoebe, but when she learns she must marry by her twenty-third birthday or forfeit the estate to an odious cousin, there’s only one thing she can do. She must find a job that will introduce her to as many eligible bachelors as possible.

Assisting Charles Addyman with his charitable functions is the perfect answer. But his home, Donhead Castle, is a place of mysteries, not least of which is Addyman’s neighbour, Mr Goodrich. Goodrich swears he’s a friend, but how can Phoebe trust a man who appears as a fop one day, a parson the next, and even attempts to hide from her by pretending to be a statue of a river god?

His earldom and his country are at stake, so he can’t afford to lose his head. Or his heart.

With a sickly sister to support and his family’s honour to restore, Robert Goodrich-Bligh is fighting to regain his earldom. The charming Miss Duvall’s new employer stands in his way but she refuses to help, even when Robert reveals Addyman to be a traitor. When he uncovers her secret, he offers himself as a husband. That way, each can secure their inheritance and give in to their fierce mutual attraction—the ideal solution, surely?

But Robert’s plans are thrown into turmoil when Addyman offers for Phoebe…and she accepts him.

Alone, penniless, and desperate, there’s nothing she can do to save the life of her beloved baby daughter, Adelina. Sir Rowland Cavendish offers an escape from her grief, but how can Seraphina ever trust a man again?

Rowland has just lost his wife, and his baby boy needs feeding. The beautiful young widow from the village would make the perfect wet nurse, but the conditions she sets in exchange for her compliance are not at all what he expects.

Seraphina refuses to share her secrets with Rowland, but her past returns to haunt her, threatening her new-found security. Her future hangs on a knife-edge as the game turns deadly, and a web of kidnapping, blackmail, and lies is uncovered.

She loves Rowland deeply, but if she doesn’t leave him, he may lose what he values above all else. His baby son.

***Offer ended***Immerse yourself in the passions and perils of Regency Bath in today’s FREE Elizabeth Keysian story!

It’s today!!!

“What’s today?” I hear you ask. It’s the day my Regency Romance, A GAME OF HAZARD, is FREE to download from Amazon. For a limited time only, you can get this Regency romp for nothing.

Here’s WHERE- https://www.bklnk.com/B0BSV7187D

and here’s WHY-

There’s a price on her head…

Miss Alexandra Isaacs learned many things at finishing school but how to run a vast smuggling empire wasn’t one of them. She’s desperate to protect this perilous inheritance because so many lives depend on it. However, there’s a traitor in their midst, and Alex must risk exposure to unmask him. There’s external danger, too, in the shape of a clever—not to mention compelling—excise officer. It would be utter folly to allow the captain any closer, but that’s precisely what a blackmailing matchmaker forces Alex to do.

…and he means to claim it.

The reward for capturing the smugglers’ ringleader is hugely tempting to Captain Giles Harewood. His sisters are in dire need of dowries and the Bath Season is in full swing—the perfect opportunity to find husbands for them. But the implacable Lady Pandora Osbourne has other plans for this confirmed bachelor—plans that could destroy all his hopes.

Who will win and who will lose in this deadly game of Hazard?

(N.B. You will already have a copy of this book if you bought The Wedding Wager back in 2022, but you won’t have all the additional information, including a toothsome taster of another tale).

Back to the Regency!

Have you got your copy of my bestselling Regency romance THE LYON AND THE LAMB yet? Here’s what some people have said about this latest story in THE LYON’S DEN series.


I definitely got a kick out of this one! This is the first book that I’ve read of this series and I’ll be sure to read more.” Sonia, Goodreads
“A really enjoyable read…the characters were witty and very likeable. A hit all round.” Avril, Goodreads
“…a fun read that is well-written and entertaining.” Jill, Goodreads
“A lovely, romantic tender read with some surprises along the way!” Karen, Amazon
“A very enjoyable enemies-to-lovers romance with Mrs. Dove-Lyon again weaving her magic and the meeting was certainly different and original…” Janpuls, Amazon
“As always with this author, you won’t be able to put it down until the end!” Lori D, Goodreads

Here’s a bit about the story-

He’s dashed all her hopes. She won’t ask him for help again…
Only the production of an heir can save Lady Araminta Lamb. The problem is that she’s a childless widow who, after an abusive marriage, can’t bear the thought of a man’s touch. But when her desperate attempt to adopt a child is foiled by the powerful Leo Chetwynd, Earl of Aylsham, there’s only one option left to keep her home and her fragile sister safe. She must gamble everything on Mrs. Dove-Lyon’s outrageous matchmaking scheme.

Playing by Society’s rules hasn’t done him any favors. Perhaps it’s time to break those rules…
Leo Chetwynd needs money urgently or his precious orphans will be cast out. A disastrous business venture has cost him all his capital, and there’s nothing left to offer but himself. Marriage to an heiress is the only solution that he and his scapegrace brother can think of, but first, he must go to the Lyon’s Den and prove his skills as a lover. If Leo accepts Mrs. Dove-Lyon’s choice of heiress, sight unseen, the orphanage and the family name will be saved. He can only pray that the chosen heiress isn’t the anonymous veiled widow who has become his enemy.

She’s the last woman on earth he could ever marry…
