โฆ Synopsis
HE PUT HER ON A PEDESTAL...
When Celeste Gray arrives in the sleepy village of Brixcombe-on-the-Bay, she thinks she's one step closer to leaving her notorious past behind. She even suspects the deliciously handsome--if somewhat stuffy--viscount next door is developing a tendre for her. That is, until the day Ashlin Lancester learns she's not the unassuming spinster she's pretending to be.
NOW SHE HAS FARTHER TO FALL
After a decade of proving he is nothing like his profligate father, Ash is horrified to have given his heart to a Cyprian. He launches a campaign to prove his attraction is nothing more than a sordid reaction he can't control. But he soon learns that unlike his father, he can't find comfort in the arms of just any woman. He needs Celeste. When he takes her as his mistress, he's still not satisfied, and the many late nights in her arms only make him want more...
The Trouble with Being Wicked is a full-length book (104,000 words) and the first book in the Naughty Girls series. The second and third books will be released in Winter 2013.

The Trouble with Being Wicked is the first novel in my Naughty Girls series, a double trilogy featuring three courtesans and three country hoydens who marry into the notorious Alexander family. These five outrageously charming rogues and their deliciously starchy neighbor give my girls six excellent reasons for behaving badly...
