  In the opulent and perilous world of high society's most elite--and most dangerous--families, two investigators must set aside their broken hearts to uncover the truth. 
   
  Gemma Parks is known to the London elite as G. M. Parker, a columnist renowned for her commentary on the cream of society. Behind the scenes, she uses her talents to aid the Imposters in their investigations by gathering intel at events and providing alibis for the firm's members through her columns. Yet her clandestine work would be more exhilarating if it weren't for the constant presence of the gentleman who broke her heart. 
   
  Graham Wharton has never had eyes for anyone but Gemma, and she left his heart in tatters when she walked away from him. When the Imposters take on a new job to recover a kidnapped boy mistaken for his aristocratic cousin, Graham is determined to use the time with Gemma to not only restore the missing boy, but to also win back the only woman he's ever loved. As they trace the clues laid out before them, Graham and Gemma must devise a noble scheme to save the boy's life and heal their hearts.

That means she has her pick of London’s most eligible bachelors – including handsome ‘ladies man’ Hugo, Lord Dalk, who pursues her relentlessly, as much for her social standing as for her beauty.But although Hugo ‘ticks all the boxes’, something in Diana tells her she deserves more in a man. So when friends Loelia and Jack Standish introduce her to an altogether different kind of man – their philosopher friend Barry Dunbar, ‘one of the greatest young intellects in Europe’ she’s intrigued. But when she meets him, she hates him. He’s dismissive of her trivial lifestyle and unimpressed by her beauty. Tragically, Diana’s world is turned upside down when her father is found dead by his own hand because his financial empire has crashed, taking with it many companies and countless investors’ precious ‘nest eggs’. Alone, penniless and cast out by the society she loves, Diana runs away from it all, including Hugo, and finds herself work as a teashop waitress, where she falls ill with pneumonia. Only now does she realise she’s in love with Barry Dunbar, only to learn that on his oriental travels, he has become a Buddhist monk. Has she discovered the love of her life just days too late?

  A devilish rake will do anything to learn the secret of a straitlaced schoolmarm in this Regency romance by the bestselling author of The Troublemaker. Word has it that every awkward young lady sent to Mrs. Hester Poitevant’s Mayfair Academy inevitably becomes marriage material. With her students going on to have any eligible bachelor they wish, Hester is able to live comfortably and in the background. And no one knows that under the guise of a stuffy widow, she is a beautiful woman who has never been married. Although Adrian Hawke is a dashing and successful businessman, his scandalous birth makes him a less-than-ideal candidate for a husband. When he draws attention from one of Hester’s favorite students, the prim Mrs. Poitevant forcefully puts a stop to it—and falls victim to his charms herself. Adrian, meanwhile, is not fooled by the feisty widow’s facade. Intrigued, the clever rogue is determined to uncover what Hester is hiding in more ways . . . than one. Perfect for fans of the Bridgerton series! “With this sparkling romance between a highly regarded widow and a thoroughly charming rake, Becnel . . . breathes life into the rigid Regency-era romance genre. . . . Hester’s spirited personality and Adrian's devil-may-care attitude will appeal to a broad readership. Playful in tone and rich in character, this book is fun, breezy entertainment.” —Publishers Weekly “A real treat.” —Booklist
