Known as the Libertine of Lindsey, Nathan Grey, the Earl of Lindsey, is notorious for his disgraceful ways with women. But when he hears rumors that his estranged wife, Evelyn, is about to be named in the Princess of Wales's infamous Book of Scandal, he has no choice but to remove her from London to protect them both—even if it's against her wishes.
Evelyn has no affection for the man who broke her heart years ago, but she is also no longer the naïve young girl he married. Her reluctant reunion with Nathan quickly turns into a battle of wills that lays bare the passion that still burns between then. But the two have powerful adversaries who would like nothing more than to see them torn apart and soon, Nathan must do everything he can to prove to the world and to Evelyn that she is not only his wife, but the woman he loves.

London (Highlander Unbound
) sets this convincing tale of romance and intrigue in the early 1800s, an obscure period of strife in the English monarchy. Nathan Grey, the Earl of Lindsey, lost himself in liquor and debauchery after the death of his infant son, while his wife, Evelyn, abandoned their loving but superficial marriage and began flirting with another peer. Three years later, when Nathan learns that Evelyn could be named in Princess Caroline’s infamous “Book of Scandal,” he kidnaps her from court, pretending they’ve reconciled. Nathan’s attempt to guard the family’s reputation soon blossoms into a genuine desire to rebuild their marriage, but Evelyn resists. Meddling by servants and both sets of parents provides needed backstory and also unites the couple against their “helpful” interference. The only sour note is Nathan’s insistence that Evelyn apologize for adulterous thoughts that pale compared to his unabashed actions. Despite the confusing court scandals, this reunion story is mostly a joy.
