Intrigued
From war-torn England to the courts of France—a “sensual, exciting” historical romance by the New York Times–bestselling author (Romantic Times).
On her mother’s advice, the virginal Lady Autumn Leslie trades the bleak future of her home in England, now embroiled in a brutal civil war, for France in hopes of finding a suitable match. The wealthy and handsome Marquis d’Auriville is all she can wish for in a husband, but when Autumn is widowed only a few years after they are wed, she believes she will never give her heart to another man.
Yet as two kings—Louis XIV and Charles II—boldly bid for her affections, Autumn is plunged into the heady world of court intrigue, where powerful men will not hesitate to use a beautiful woman for their own ends—or barter her for their own pleasure. Yet it is Gabriel Bainbridge, the Duke of Garwood, a face from Autumn’s past, who is determined to become her passionate, and only, destiny.
