Lady Beware

The Rogue's Return

“Beverley beautifully blends complex characters, an exquisitely sensual love story, and a refreshingly different Regency setting into one sublime romance.”

—
Booklist

“Jo Beverley has written an excellent character study. One of the best books I've read this season.”

—
Affaire de Coeur

A Most Unsuitable Man

“Picking up exactly where
Winter Fire
leaves off, Beverley turns a rejected ‘other woman' into a fiery, outspoken, sympathetic heroine; pairs her with a dashing but penniless, scandal-ridden hero; and lets the fun—and the danger—begin. Once again readers are treated to a delightful, intricately plotted, and sexy romp set in the slightly bawdy Georgian world of Beverley's beloved Malloren Chronicles.”

—
Library Journal

“Beverley brings back some of the characters from
Winter Fire
as she takes her readers into the dangerous, intriguing, and opulent world of Georgian England. Her strong characters and fine-honed dialogue, combined with a captivating love story, are a pleasure to read.”

—
Romantic Times

“I found myself enjoying every minute of the relationship in this story of love, hope, and increments of witty humor. As usual, a Malloren novel is a keeper.”

—
Rendezvous

“Expertly laced with danger and skillfully sweetened with sensuality,
A Most Unsuitable Man
is a most captivating romance.”
