The life of Florian Sambridge-Lockwood can be as privileged as any rich New York student. Parties every weekend in the Hamptons, shopping sprees at Saks Fifth Avenue, and toasting to champagne for dinner. That is until an anonymous account named 'Birdie' begins to expose the secrets of many students at the exclusive Cardinal Richelieu Collegiate Academy. And to top it off, newly arrived transfer students threaten the hierarchy. Among the new students is Julian Marcuse, who has begun to insert himself into Florian's life through many ways. Will Florian survive Birdie and their masklfess face? Will he ignore Julian to preserve his own secrets? How far will Florian go to shield himself from everyone?

Despite the unshakable attraction between them, Maeve and Lucian are uninterested in love and marriage; especially since they hate one another and couldn't think of a worse match. • • • London, 1815 Maeve Langston's aversion to the opposite sex has given her the reputation of being an insufferable wench, so men have learned to stay away from her. Lucian Thorne, Baron Worthington, has become somewhat of a cynical hermit since his return from the Napoleonic wars, injured and disgruntled. When the two meet, they rapidly learn to despise each other. She appears to be a narcissistic brat, and he keeps acting like a pompous arse. Lucian wants nothing more than to stay away from Maeve, but his best friend has his eyes set on her for marriage. He has no choice but to show him the dreadful harpy that lies beneath the lovely facade. However, the more time they spend in each other's presence, the clearer it becomes that first impressions can be wrong. Between their unexpected similarities and the sparks that fly every time they meet, what started as hatred slowly shifts into something different. Something both of them will find much more dangerous. • • • This is the second installment of the Langston Series. Although I advise you to read the first one first (The Prince and the Spitfire), it can be read as a standalone.
