Publisher Description
She’s nothing but a common thief…and her next target is the Earl of Scarsdale’s heart.
Orphaned as a child and left in her uncle’s care, Marian Trill has known only a life of crime. Criss-crossing the countryside, she aids her uncle and his small troupe of thieves in conning well-to-do travelers…until one handsome mark catches her eye. Marian has no business betraying her only family for this gentleman’s safety…just as she has no business following Danny all the way to his country estate to return a valuable ring he left behind.
Daniel, Earl of Scarsdale, is returning home after years of avoiding the inevitable—marrying his neighbor’s daughter. He’d hoped to wed for love, but having failed at that venture, it’s time he took his duties seriously, even if it means settling for a woman more to his mother’s liking than his own. He didn’t count on the beguiling thief he met on the road following him home—nor on his scheming granny inviting her to stay as her companion.
No Ordinary Lady is a full-length regency historical romance novel. It is another book in the steamy Distinguished Rogues series but can be read as a stand-alone.

Customer Reviews
Instant Attraction but is it Love?
Brought up a thief, Marian Trill is dismayed to hear her troupe discuss robbing the carriage of the amiable and handsome gentleman whose pockets they have already relieved of all coin and trinkets. She is convinced that he or his servants will be hurt and on overhearing that she too is in danger from greedy/envious factions within the troupe she goes back to the inn where he is staying to warn him. And so begins an unlikely, but highly enjoyable story, between an Earl and a thief, his feisty and lively Granny and his buttoned-down Mama.
