Two Lives Saved, One Love Discovered, in A Season to be Sinful, a Historical Regency Romance from Jo Goodman
An orphan raised in the sanctuary of a French abbey, Lily Sterling flees to the bustling city of London to escape the clutches of an unwanted English lord. But fate has other plans. She soon finds herself ensnared by the very man she sought to evade, once again escaping, this time into the dangerous streets of Holborn, where she takes in and schools young pickpockets.
Lily's path intersects with Alexander Grantham, Viscount Sheridan (Sherry), renowned for his uprightness and sensibility. When Sherry is attacked by an assailant, Lily valiantly comes to his rescue, only to be grievously wounded in the process. Moved by her bravery, Sherry takes Lily and her three charges, the scoundrels, into his home while Lily recovers.
While under Sherry's attentive care, an undeniable attraction sparks between them. But past burdens conceal their deepest secrets and insecurities. As Sherry delves into Lily's history, he discovers a remarkable tale of survival and resilience that moves him like no one ever has.
However, the shadows of their pasts weigh heavily. Sherry's recent resignation from covert work for the Crown raises suspicions about the true intentions of the attack Lily thwarted. As the truth unfurls, they realize that their pasts intertwine in dangerous ways. Despite their bruised souls, they find solace and strength in each other's arms, along with the courage to fight a shared enemy.
