Midnight Pleasures With a Scoundrel

To catch a dangerous predator in Victorian London, she must surrender to the law.

The wildest passion comes under the cover of night in Midnight Pleasures with a Scoundrel, the fourth installment in New York Times bestselling author Lorraine Heath’s thrilling Scoundrels of St. James romance series.

Eleanor Watkins is on a quest to avenge her sister’s death, and no one can stop her—no one but the strong, compassionate, and utterly irresistible inspector James Swidler . . .

Shadowing a ruthless marquess through the pleasure gardens of Cremorne, she is prepared to risk her reputation and her life to see retribution served.

Assigned by Scotland Yard to tail the daring beauty, Swindler steps from the fog to save her from peril, determined to uncover her deepest secrets before she strikes.
