To all of Regency London, Sebastian Traherne is a pretentious fop who prizes his tailor over his dukedom. In truth, he's an obsessively rational fellow protecting a secret marriage. When a prickly Welsh miss arrives at his crumbling castle one gloomy night, she upends his world-and every principle he holds dear. Worse, she believes in a silly fairy tale known as True Love.
Gwynna Owen might be the last true Princess of Wales, but she needs this very English duke to claim her legacy and vanquish a tyrant. When Sebastian quickly sees through her boy's disguise, she must plead her case with only a rusty dagger-and sapphire eyes that conjure what he most wishes to avoid.
Book 2 in the Maitland's Rogues series featuring Andrew Maitland's group of daring English rogues who risk all for their country. Hardened and deadly, they have no use for love-until it ensnares them...
About the Author :
Eileen Putman is the author of a dozen British historical and Regency romances. Her love of England's Regency period (1811-1820) has inspired her research trips to England, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, France and other countries -- there being no substitute for stepping on the soil that Beau Brummell and his champagne-polished Hessians once trod. Her new release is "Lord Shallow," Book 2 in the Maitland's Rogues series of Regency historical romances.

"An exquisitely written regency romance. It was a start it at 10 PM, wait, it's 2 AM and I'm still reading experience."
"It's hard for me to put into words how her writing has affected me. More than just word pictures, she's created an entire gallery of emotions for me to digest and enjoy."
Excellent Regency Historical Romance! Beautifully written! I love both the Love stories. The use of actual places and how well they are described made me feel like I was there. ...Yes I cried, laughed, and felt anger. Very heartwarming book. I can't say enough good about it!"
