The Wicked Cousin – a brief extract

It was a long moment before Sebastian could make his lungs work. Finally, he groaned, ‘Hell, Adrian. That is truly evil.’

‘Take it or leave it,’ grinned Lord Sarre. ‘This way you have eight weeks in which to refuse all other wagers whilst allowing your reputation to die a natural death.’

‘You have a very devious mind,’ grumbled Sebastian.

‘I know. Well?’

‘I think I must be mildly insane.’ Mr Audley held out his hand and, when his lordship grasped it, said, ‘All right. I agree. But if something goes disastrously wrong and I end up at the altar, don’t be surprised if I shoot you.’

‘You’re not a complete idiot, Sebastian. If you end up at the alter, it will be because you want to.’

THE WICKED COUSIN

On a scorching August day in 1757 when he was eight years old, Sebastian Audley’s life changed. And though he did not know it, the change would last for the next thirteen years.

Mr Audley left university with an Honours degree in Law, a superior ability at the chessboard … and A Plan.

The list of things he did not have was much longer.

He didn’t quit Cambridge with a host of happy memories or a coterie of firm and lasting friends; he’d never drunk himself witless nor gambled away a term’s allowance at cards. He hadn’t participated in any of the hilarious pranks beloved of undergraduates everywhere and he hadn’t visited a brothel; in fact, though he’d sooner his eyes were picked out by crows than admit it, he’d never even kissed a girl.

In short, Sebastian had spent three years acquiring a particularly fine education … and nothing else whatsoever.

The Plan, however, was designed to change all that.

The Wicked Cousin is now available for pre-order from Amazon, Smashwords, Kobo and Barnes & Noble.

THE WICKED COUSIN – ROCKLIFFE BOOK FOUR

Pre-order now available from Kobo and Barnes & Noble!

THE  WICKED  COUSIN  is now available for pre-order

Sebastian Audley has spent years setting every city in Europe by the ears – so the rumour that he is finally returning to London is the hottest gossip of the Season.

In Cassandra Delahaye’s opinion, love affairs and duels, coupled with a name for never refusing even the most death-defying wager, suggest that Mr Audley is short of a brain cell or two.

As for Sebastian, he had known that living down his wild past in a society with an insatiable appetite for scandal would be difficult;  what he hadn’t expected was to find himself the target of a former lover’s dangerous obsession.

Available now to pre-order from Amazon  The Wicked Cousin at Amazon UK

Also from Smashwords, Barnes & Noble and Kobo.
