Victorian Scoundrel
by Stephanie
Burkhart
It's
2011 and compressed natural gas has taken over from the coal producing steam
machines of the Victorian Age. Alice Windsor, Princess of York, follows her
mischief-making cousin, Edmund of Wales, back to 1851 where Prince Albert is
hosting Britain's Great Exhibition.
Alice
soon finds herself over her head in trouble. Edmund is determined to help
Prince Albert build a dirigible and the prime minister appears intent in
preventing her from stopping Edmund. Alice knows it's too early for the massive
flying machine to take to the air. Complicating matters is the passionate
Grayson Kentfield, Earl of Swinton. Alice can't stop her pulse from pounding
when she's near him.
Can
Alice give her heart to a man from the past while working to stop Edmund from
changing history?
Want an excerpt? You know you do! Here you go:
Grayson escorted her to a door on the right, threw it open,
and put his hand on her waist, guiding her inside. A gas lamp burned on a
nearby table, throwing stark, deep shadows into the room.
Her determined man shut the door and pinned her against it.
He plucked her glasses from her face and threw them onto the table with the gas
lamp. Then he pinned her against the door, placing his hands on the door next
to her arms. His breathing was erratic. The light from the lamp cast dark
shadows over his chiseled features.
"Gray--"
He stepped closer and lowered his hands, placing one on her
waist. Heat spiked within her and settled low in her abdomen. His hazel eyes burned
with desire. He drew in a deep breath and raised his forefinger, tracing her
lips. Alice closed her eyes, but only briefly, savoring the gentle touch of his
finger.
"You do wild things to my heart, sweet Alice," he
finally whispered. His finger traced her cheeks, then her jaw.
She grew hot, yearning for more. Her senses spun from his
sensual touch. She could hardly breathe. "Me?"
"Yes, you."
"What do I do to your heart?"
"You make it beat hard -- fast." He ran his finger
down the side of her neck and traced the 'v' in her throat.
Alice met the raging inferno in his eyes and nipped at her
lower lip with her teeth. "Is that all I do?"
He issued a low, deep groan from his throat and leaned
forward.
