Rake in Disguise

The most dishonorable thing Dr. Orlando Valentine could do was fall in love with a married woman. But when he witnesses Lady Blythe Clay being auctioned by her husband, he could not stand by and let another soldier claim her. Though she may be his, Blythe was still married in the eyes of the church, and he could not be a participant in adultery.Lady Blythe Clay had suffered the ultimate humiliation when her husband decided to sell her to one of his fellow soldiers. Thankfully it was Dr. Orlando Valentine, a captain and physician in Wellington's army, who won her. Unfortunately, Orlando treated her more as friend and never a wife, so when she returns to England a widow, Blythe vows to never speak of what happened. She had also hoped to forget Orlando, but when she comes face to face with him three years later, Blythe realizes that her heart never healed and the forbidden desire never died and she knows exactly what to do. Jane Charles has lived in the Midwest her entire life. As a child she would more likely be found outside with a baseball than a book in her hand. In fact, Jane hated reading until she was sixteen. Out of boredom on a long road trip she borrowed her older sister's historical romance and fell in love with reading. She long ago lost count of how many fiction novels she has read over the years and her love for them never died. Along with romance she has a passion for history and the two soon combined when she penned her first historical romance. What turned into a hobby became a passion, which has been fully supported by her husband, three children and three cats.
