Lyonesse Books Descriptions
Salt in the Wound
The first time I meet the devil, he knows my name.
The second time I meet him, the truth becomes clear: Mark Trevena is to be my husband.
No matter that we don’t know each other. No matter that he’s older than me; shameless and sinful; the owner of a secret club where the powerful come to play. My father has spoken, and I’ll be the devil’s bride the minute I graduate from college.
Except my future husband has one condition for this arranged marriage: we have to pretend it’s real.
He’ll teach me, he says. How to pretend to be his in pain and pleasure both. How to pretend to arch and writhe under his touch. But his lessons are teaching me something else entirely…
…that Mark Trevena wants me in a way that’s not pretend at all.
And no matter how I might fight it, the devil will have his due.
Salt Kiss
After leaving the Army, the young former soldier is in limbo. Until, that is, he’s hired by Mark Trevena, the owner of Lyonesse—DC’s ultra-secret club—to be Mark’s new bodyguard. He’s drawn into Mark’s dark, seductive world of power and desire, and slowly drawn to Mark himself, even though Mark is everything Tristan knows he shouldn’t want: cruel and wicked and shamelessly amoral.
But protecting Mark isn’t Tristan’s only duty: soon, Mark asks him to guard his soon-to-be bride as she travels home from Ireland on Mark’s yacht. Tristan is jealous—and hurt to learn that the object of his obsession is engaged—but the soldier in him is made to obey orders, and he goes to fetch Mark’s bride for him.
Isolde Laurence is nothing like Tristan expected, however. Young, quiet, and sharp, she’s being pushed into this marriage by her family, and as the two travel back to America, Tristan finds himself fascinated with Isolde and the glimpses he gets of the lonely but determined woman behind her reserve. And the fascination is mutual: one night, while sailing under the cold stars, they share a searing kiss.
From there, it’s a fast fall into the forbidden.
But in Mark Trevena’s world, the fall is only the beginning…
Honey Cut
Isolde Laurence thought she knew the perils that came with loving a devil and his angel of a bodyguard. She never realized that the most perilous thing to befall her would be them falling in love with her back…

I’m a scoundrel
Playboy. Man whore.
Basically, I get around, and I’m not afraid to admit it.

Now we’re on a cross-country road trip touring other kink clubs, and I couldn’t be happier.

Then Hunter suddenly asks me to sleep with his wife…while he watches.
I’ll do anything for my best friend, but this is the one request I should say no to.
