She has written over 260 romance novels in several different genres.Andrew Belgrade, the Duke of Essex, has attempted for years to restore the Belgrade family name, after his mother ran off with the family butler ten years ago, and his father lost himself in drink and ladies of the theatre, before then dying of the former. To add to the scandal, five years ago Andrew’s only sister, Elena, eloped with a man she had only known for a week. But at least she had chosen to remain in Scotland with her husband after the wedding, rather than bring that scandal back to London.As a result, Andrew holds himself aloof from all possibility of scandal. He does so by choosing his friends carefully and otherwise remaining aloof from Society and any romantic involvements.He is suitably saddened when he receives a letter from a Miss Catriona McGregor, informing him that his sister, and Miss McGregor’s brother, have both been killed in a boating accident.He is shocked when Miss McGregor then adds that the custody of the couple’s four-year-old son, Malcolm, now lies with him.Cat has no idea what to make of the aloof gentleman who arrives in Scotland claiming to be the brother of her now deceased sister-in-law, Elena. Oh Andrew Belgrade, the Duke of Essex is aristocratic enough to bear that title, but he is also cold and arrogant. To such a degree Cat resists relinquishing her nephew, Malcolm, into his guardianship.The last thing Cat expects is to feel attracted to this coldly distant gentleman.Or for him, albeit reluctantly, to return that attraction…Other books by Carole MortimerRegency Scandal:Wanton (Regency Scandal 1)Wild (Regency Scandal 2)More books to come in this series.Regency Men in Love – MM series written as C A MORTIMERHidden Lover (Regency Men in Love 1)Hidden Desire (Regency Men in Love 2) Now availableHidden Secret (Regency Men in Love 3)More books to come in this seriesRussian Dragon Heat – paranormal romance, dragon shiftersVladimir (Russian Dragon Heat 1)Vaughn (Russian Dragon Heat 2)Aleksey (Russian Dragon Heat 3)More books to come in this seriesDance with the Devil - a contemporary hot and steamy romance seriesMATTEO (Dance with the Devil 1)LEON (Dance with the Devil 2)KILLIAN (Dance with the Devil 3)JERICHO (Dance with the Devil 4)More books to come in this seriesRegency Club Venus:Bastian’s Surrender (Regency Club Venus 1)Gabriel’s Torment (Regency Club Venus 2)Benedict’s Challenge (Regency Club Venus 3)Julius’s Passion (Regency Club Venus 4)James’s Lady (Regency Club Venus 5)This series is now complete.Also Available:Steele Protectors: Bks 1-6Dragon Hearts Series – Bks 1-8Regency Lovers Series – Bks 1-6ALPHA Series – Bks 1-8Regency Unlaced – Bks 1-9Regency Sinners – Bks 1-8Knight Security – Bks 0.5-6In 2015 Carole became the Recipient of the prestigious Romance Writers of America’s Lifetime Achievement Award.
