Lady Derring Takes a Lover: The Palace of Rogues Audiobook (Free)

A mistress. A mountain of personal debt. A strange wreck of a building.

Delilah Swanpoole, Countess of Derring, learns the hard method that her spouse, “Dear Dull Derring,” is a lot more interesting-and perfidious-dead than alive. It’s a devil of the inheritance, however in the grand ruins of the one building Derring still left her, will be the seeds of her liberation. And she vows under no circumstances again to place herself susceptible to a man.

But battle-hardened Captain Tristan Hardy is nothing if not merciless. When the charismatic naval hero paths a notorious smuggler to a London boarding home known as the Rogue’s Palace, seducing the beautiful, blue-blooded proprietress to get his man seems like a little sacrifice.

They both believe love is a myth. But a desire beyond cause threatens to eliminate the armor around their hearts. Right now a shattering decision looms: Will Tristan betray his personal code of honor…or choose a love that might be the truest thing he’s ever known?
