An Earl Most Wicked

A dark historical romance rooted in the realities and unforgiving customs of the Regency Era, where marriage is duty, obedience is demanded, and a formidable husband enforces his will through ruthless discipline, binding danger and desire into a story of power, defiance, and the perilous edge between fear and forbidden longing.

Amanda Whitley arrives to London determined to outlast scandal, silence gossip, and secure a place no one can take from her. Marriage to the formidable Earl of Trentmore—cold, exacting, and in desperate need of her fortune—seems the perfect arrangement. But Amanda underestimates the man behind the title. Beneath his unyielding composure lies a ruthless authority… and a hunger she is unprepared for.

From glittering ballrooms to the icy moors of Yorkshire, Amanda and Trentmore wage a private war of wills. His discipline is as precise as it is unrelenting; her defiance, as deliberate as her every step into his world. But when a figure from Amanda's past returns, threatening not only her reputation but the fragile trust they have built, their carefully drawn boundaries begin to blur.

In a society where appearances mean survival, Amanda must decide whether to guard her independence at all costs—or risk surrendering to the one man who has ever truly seen her. And Trentmore must face a truth he never intended: that love, once claimed, is the one possession he cannot control.

A Regency/Victorian romance rich with tension, emotional depth, and scorching intimacy, An Earl Most Wicked is the story of two equally matched adversaries learning that the most dangerous battles are the ones fought for the heart.
