Wicked With You

Legend has it that the rose quartz has the power to bring about true love…

Henrietta Sutton has always kept her expectations about love realistic, scoffing at the notion that a charmed stone could sway her fortunes in romance. But her skepticism is challenged when the dashing Lord Simon Barrington quite unexpectedly falls into her life—quite literally at her feet. Suddenly, Henrietta finds herself entangled with the notorious rogue, agreeing to paint his portrait, a task that brings them dangerously close.

As their time together lengthens, Henrietta can’t help but fall for Simon’s charms, fearing that her feelings are more fantasy than reality. Can this unexpected love, sparked under such unusual circumstances, truly last, or is it another fanciful illusion? Henrietta must decide whether to trust their connection or protect her heart from potential heartbreak.

Wicked with You was previously published in the Love be a Lady’s Charm anthology.
