Summary: A tale set in Stuart England, where the king’s life depends on his most loyal of subjects. Anthony Redbourn, Earl of Crofton, delights in his reputation as a charming rogue. Life is never quiet at the court of King James I, especially with his good friend and secret lover, Sebastian Hewel, by his side. As an actor with the celebrated King’s Men, Sebastian has his own admirers, but neither man has eyes for anyone else. When a plot against His Majesty is uncovered it threatens Anthony and Sebastian’s charmed lives, and they are dragged into the political intrigue and the race to save the king from danger. Fear that a traitor is linked to the King's Men leaves Sebastian and Anthony with no choice but to stage a very public dissolution of their friendship, so Anthony can be free to be the patron of a new rising actor, and Sebastian can be the prodigy of another noble. It is a dangerous game they are playing to expose the plotters and still find a way to meet in secret, as Anthony is adamant that they will not sacrifice the love they have fought so hard to win. They will do whatever it takes to protect the king’s life, and their commitment to each other.

James Redbourn enjoys all the pleasures King Charles II’s Restoration court affords him. When James encounters the Chivalrous Highwayman in Epping Forest it ignites a delicious fantasy for the court, but it is the intriguing Adam Dowson, the son of one of the greatest Cavalier generals, who fires James’s daytime desires. Unfortunately for James, Adam seems to be one of the few men who is impervious to James’s charms, no matter how hard James tries.

Summary: Anyone who had thought Lord Byron mad, bad and dangerous to know, obviously hadn’t met Charles Redbourn, 8th Earl of Crofton. Charles Redbourn cares little for anyone’s opinion, life is there to be lived and the London Ton provides a host of pleasures. He is used to getting his own way and, after another clash with the impertinent Captain Timothy Thorne, Charles is determined to put the uniformed upstart in his place. Both are stubborn and passionate men, and someone is going to win this battle of wits—to the winner the spoils. But when enemies turn into lovers, they face an uncertain future. Charles has to decide which is more important, Timothy or being the Earl of Crofton.   “My constitution is no concern of yours, Crofton. I fear you would not survive at my hand. A soft bellied gentleman such as yourself could not hope to slake my needs.” Charles snorted. “Bless your naivety, Captain. Give a man a sword and shiny buttons and he thinks he is a dashing hero, but maybe he is the heroine who is in need of a firm hand.”
