  *Part one of a duet. 
  No good ever comes from a red-head in a stolen dress with her worldly possessions at her feet. 
  I should have known she was trouble when smoke and sin followed her into my bar and she challenged me to a game. 
  She may have won my watch, but she started a war. 
  As she slipped my Breitling off my wrist and onto her own, she gleefully announced she was the luckiest girl in the world. 
  Yeah, lucky to everyone but me. 
  Because the moment her muddy boots stomped down the stairs and up my spine, my empire started to crumble. 
  My cashmere charm is wrinkling. 
  My gentlemanly facade is cracking. 
  My enemies are closing in. 
  Maybe the fortune teller was right: 
  The Queen of Hearts will drag me down to hell. 
  At least it’s wonderfully warm among the flames. 
  Somme's notes: 
  Sinners Condemned is part one of a duet, and because of this, it ends on a cliffhanger. Rafe and Penny’s story continues in Sinners Consumed. 
  For a better listening experience, please listen to Sinners Anonymous before listening to Sinners Condemned. 
  You should know that I write dark romance, and my stories–including this one–aren’t for the faint of heart. They contain several triggers, so aren’t suitable for everyone.

  Stories From The Shadows – The...

  An author’s talents may seem obvious and indisputable as they move words and ideas into gathered phrases and stories.  
  But where do these ideas and stories come from?  A lonely thought that suddenly gathers form?  An inspiration from a Muse?  A suggestion from an everyday event? 
  Perhaps in the case of their darker, more malevolent stories, other forces are at work.  They help to nourish single words into sentences and paragraphs that ease themselves from the shadows and are suddenly upon us in twisted revelation that may thrill, may disturb, but will always engage and help us explore the edge of darkness where some of the very best literature patiently lurks …. waiting …. for the likes of me and you.

  There – suddenly – was Thornby Manor.
  I would never forget the first time I saw it…
  A talisman of darkness, an emblem of death.
  Warwickshire, 1891. Recently orphaned and left destitute, Briar Monroe accepts the protection of Lord Danville and the shadowed sanctuary of Thornby Manor. The great house looms above a mist-shrouded lake, its corridors heavy with secrets – not least the mysterious death of Lady Elizabeth Danville, and the unspoken tensions between her formidable widower and his magnetic son, Gabriel.
  As Briar navigates the undercurrents of a household ruled by watchful servants and locked doors, she is drawn ever deeper into a web of suspicion, desire and fear. Whispers in the night, figures at windows, and a constant sense of being watched leave her questioning not only the truth about Thornby, but her own safety within its walls.
  Atmospheric, intoxicating and laced with peril, Thornby Manor is a gothic tale of betrayal, obsession and a house that never forgets.
  A simmering, haunting debut for readers who loved Jane Eyre, Rebecca, The Woman in White and The Silent Companions
