"This is such an AMAZING story … compelling to read." Reader Review - Part 1 of 3; the HEA occurs in the third installment.
A desperate widow dares greatly…
Penniless since her husband's demise and now ousted from her home by his indifferent heir, a young widow reaches her wits' end—the end of her meager food stores, certainly. When her friend, a diamond of the demimonde, arranges a protector for Thea, she can do naught but agree. 'Tis that or starve.
But what happens when her previously passionless existence is challenged by the titled lord who now owns her favors? The brusque, rough-around-the-edges Marquis keeps to himself, is annoyingly silent, but kisses like a dream and Thea soon falls for the mysterious man she knows nothing about… Save for his generous nature, lusty sense of humor, and the grand accommodations he's provided.
As to the man himself? Secrets abound and Thea fears she may have exchanged homelessness for heartbreak.
Jane Austen fans who always wished her fun and witty books had more heat are likely to enjoy this sweet and spicy hot Regency romance.
Seductive Silence, an extended novella of 38,000 words, is Book 1 of 3 in the Mistress in the Making steamy Regency series, a fun, "sexy Jane Austen styled", emotionally satisfying tale told in three parts: Seductive Silence, Lusty Letters, and Daring Declarations.

Seductive Silence
I was not quite sure how Larissa was going to get their story started with his problem with speech. Sara was right they are a perfect match and needed to pursue their journey to become more than a mistress and Lord...this book is delightful and I look forward to the next one.....April H Jacksonville Fl
Seductive Silence
This novella took over 400 pages instead of less than 20 to set up the relationship that is a series. The author writes well but, come on, really? It warned it was completed in the 3rd book.
Cliff hanger
The beginning looks promising with strong characters. It appears to require two additional books to complete the story
