Deceive Me Not (Me Not #3)

TO LOVE IN SILENCE

Beautiful but sheltered --- haunted by her father's early demise --- Lady Melissa Seymour shields her fragile emotions behind the exquisite exterior she presents to British society. But one man has penetrated her guard and entered her fantasies: Bruce Palmerston, Viscount Channing, a forceful and devilishly handsome rogue ... and her family's avowed enemy.

TO LOVE WITH ABANDON

At first Bruce Palmerston viewed delicate Melissa as a pawn in his plan to ruin the woman who tried to destroy two people he cherished. But Melissa's caring soul and alluring beauty have softened his vengeful heart, arousing his desires and protective instincts as no one has done before. Now Melissa's impetuous ardor --- and the heaven they have both found in each other's arms --- is threatened by hateful conspirators who would see their romance fail. But Bruce has tasted Melissa's lips and her passion. And he will allow no treachery to prevent him from freeing his gentle, guarded lady --- and himself --- with the power of all-conquering love. Rated '4/5 - Explicit open door' for steam/spice/heat level.
