Are you all looking for something new to read? Or have you read Darcy Burke, but haven't tried her historical? Or maybe you are just discovering this series? Today I'm spotlighting Darcy's League of Rogues series. Check it out. Today there's blurbs, mini excerpts, and giveaway. Have fun.
Blurb Lady of Desire:
Miss Margery Derrington and her dear aunts are
in dire straits. Their discovery of a rare manuscript will hopefully stave off
their creditors—if it’s worth what they hope. Margery reluctantly allies with a
reclusive scholar to use the book to pursue a treasure that could solve their
woes. Only, the irresistible desire she feels toward her partner is neither
expected nor wanted.
Rhys Bowen can’t believe he has his hands on
the elusive de Valery text. Solving its hidden code and unearthing its
legendary treasure would establish him as one of Britain’s leading antiquaries,
finally casting him out of his brilliant late father’s shadow. But when a
centuries-old organization convinces Rhys of the perils of disturbing the past,
he must choose between his conscience…and the captivating woman he’s sworn to
help.
Excerpt:
“Good night then.”
“Good night.”
Neither of them moved.
Suddenly he stepped forward and cupped the side
of her face. He kissed her, trapping her hands with her books between them.
Unlike the day before, this kiss was soft, gentle, and so sweet she thought she
might sigh with the loveliness of it.
His fingers stroked along the underside of her
jaw as his mouth worked over hers. She tipped her head to the side and kissed
him back, though she lacked the experience he clearly demonstrated.
He glided his hand back along her neck and she
did sigh then, which opened her lips to his tongue. Then he did that thing
again, where he slipped it into her mouth, and now she wanted to groan instead
of sigh. It was hot and wet and delicious and she couldn’t get enough. And her
bloody hands were engaged. Just as she was about to drop her books, probably on
his feet, and grasp the front of his banyan, he lifted his head.
“My apologies. I said there’d be no more
kissing.” His voice was dark and heavy. “I’m afraid I simply couldn’t resist,
but I shan’t do it again. Good night, and this time I mean it.” He tucked his
book beneath his arm, went into his room, and closed the door.

Blurb Romancing the Earl:
Major Elijah Hollister never wanted to be an
earl, particularly not when it meant losing his brother. When a bold
adventuress shows up at his door seeking a treasure map, Elijah suspects his
brother’s death may not have been accidental and that the lady knows more than
she’s willing to share. Whether she’s a friend or foe, Elijah plans to keep her
close—and hope the temptation of her kisses doesn’t ruin them both.
Miss Catriona Bowen can almost taste the fruits
of her years-long quest to find one of Britain’s greatest treasures. The
discovery will deliver the recognition and respect she deserves as an
antiquary, despite the fact that she’s a woman. However, to find the map that
will lead her to success, she must ally herself with a stoic, yet provocative
earl with a different goal. And when a villain threatens their lives, she
realizes too late that love is the greatest treasure of all.
Excerpt:
“Bollocks.”
His eyes widened. “Pardon?”
She cast him a disbelieving look. “Oh, you
heard me.” Catching an unsettling amount of his unfortunately delicious scent
of sandalwood and pine, she took a small step back.
“Maybe I just wanted to hear you say it again.”
“That I believe.” She lifted her chin and gave
him an unflinching stare. “You didn’t respond to my offer of five hundred
pounds.”
“You don’t have five hundred pounds.”
“You don’t know that,” she said crossly.
He glanced up at the ceiling as if he were
trying to find some patience from on high, but he’d given her the impression he
was somewhat of a heathen, so she really had no idea what he was doing. When he
looked at her again, his eyes were fierce and frigid. “I’d stake the tapestry
on it.”
“The tapestry you don’t have,” she said
testily.
“The tapestry you’ll likely never have.”
She sucked in a breath. “Now you’re just being
cruel.”
“Still being pragmatic, actually.”
