The Lady Was Lying
Greydon Series Book 3
On the eve of her sister’s debut, Belinda promises her brother she won’t lure a gentleman into a compromising position. Succeeding only because the stranger she encounters in the garden refuses to kiss her, she can’t help but worry that she’s lost her allure.
​
Already hiding a scandalous secret, James resists the gorgeous woman he meets in the moonlight. Determined to uphold his honor and marry well, he futilely explains that he cannot risk engaging in a casual dalliance.
​
Unable to forget the sting of rejection, Belinda finds herself seeking James’ attention. As one encounter becomes another, she can’t help but wonder why she can’t get him off her mind. Is it because he said no? Or because he is the one?
​
The Lady was Lying is the third novel in the Greydon series. It features a lady who has never felt passion and a duke who is fascinated by her.

The Gentleman Was Right
Greydon Series Book 2
Once relentlessly cheerful, lately, Edward has been a tad peevish. Traveling to his brother’s cottage is meant to prove his usefulness to the earldom and restore his good humor. Upon arrival, he discovers two unexpected houseguests pretending to be his cousins and immediately finds himself wanting to help. Offering to marry the oldest might be impulsive, but it feels right in a way nothing else does. Is the craziest thing he’s ever done also the smartest?
​
Fleeing an unwanted betrothal to a man she used to love, Violet is not prepared for Edward’s offer of marriage. Determined to solve her own problems, she declines, but holding onto her resolve is more difficult than she anticipates. The chemistry she shares with Edward is shockingly intense and his patience and kindness are unwavering. Can she trust her own judgment enough to trust him with her heart?
​
The Gentleman Was Right is the second in the Greydon series. While it can be read as a standalone, Edward is a prominent secondary character in The Earl Was Wrong and readers may appreciate meeting him in that story first.
The Earl Was Wrong
Greydon Series Book 1
​​When his father died, sixteen-year-old Sebastian inherited a crumbling earldom. He dedicated himself to becoming a respectable lord, and now, a decade later, he will do anything to prevent his scandalous sister from undermining his status—even marry a sensible spinster. Emmeline ought to be the ideal wife, but she is less biddable and more beddable than he expects. To his dismay, feelings beyond friendship begin to emerge. Although intimacy breeds affection, can it inspire love?
​​
Born a vicar’s daughter, Emmeline has dedicated herself to her younger siblings and, as a result, has been too busy to consider her own future. At twenty-four, marriage seems unlikely—until she meets a practical lord who offers her the very thing she’s always dreamed of: a family of her own. Sebastian ought to be the perfect husband, but he can be overbearing and emotionally distant. To her relief, she begins to catch glimpses of a kind, caring man behind his cold exterior. Can she convince him that they deserve more than a marriage of convenience?
