The New York Times–bestselling author “is back and better than ever” in this Regency romance of dangerous exploits and breathtaking seduction (Julia Quinn). She Couldn’t Escape Her Past Ripped from her dying mother’s arms, Morgana Fowler was cast into a life of desperate thievery. With a tongue even sharper than the blade she deftly wields, she has all but mastered her devious trade—until she picks the pocket of a dashing American who wrests her from the sordid streets of London. In the arms of her gallant protector, she is helpless against the longing he elicits within her . . . He Couldn’t Contain His Passion Royce Manchester basks in a world of privilege and power in the decadent British Regency, and lowborn Morgana finds in him a love she’s never known.

With a sinister figure from her past ever lurking at her heels, she and Royce must confront one of Regency England’s most diabolical villains—a challenge that fans the flame of a love that knows no bounds . . . “Busbee delivers what you read a romance for.” —West Coast Review of Books Praise for Scandal Becomes Her “A scandalously delicious read that left me wanting more!” —Bertrice Small, New York Times–bestselling author “A walloping good story.
