It is an evening for rakes and rogues, courtesans and demimondes, and lords and ladies in disguise, all wishing to sample the array of erotic delights around them. But this ball is not the talk of the ton, it is a taste of forbidden ecstasy . . . WILLFUL SURRENDER Lilly had never dreamed that hiding in her brother's carriage would end in her arrival at a ball such as this. She should be shocked by the bawdy behaviour before her, but instead she is intrigued. And when Vincent St. Jerome, London's foremost rake, offers to help her find her brother, she follows him to a room filled with peep holes in the walls. What Lilly sees is pre carnal pleasure and all she desires is complete sexual surrender . . . WILLING SEDUCION Lady Wentland is a worldly widow who misses the sensual delights she used to share with her husband. So attending the Cyprian's Ball disguised as a courtesan allows her to sample the erotic pleasures she's missed-until she meets Winston Greyton, her brother's best friend and the one man she knows she might have once loved. She resists his first advances toward her-but the heat of their arousal soon ignites a fire of wicked, reckless passion . . .

When an insect-borne plague begins to envelop the world, three sixteen-year-olds struggle to survive amongst the healthy “trues” and the infected “wickeds” in this gripping dystopian tale from the author of The Winter Place. A plague, called Wickedness, is pulsing through the world; and in its wake, it’s dividing the population into thirds: The WICKED: Already infected by the droves of Singers, the ultraviolet mosquito-like insects who carry the plague, the Wicked roam the world freely. They don’t want for much—only to maim and dismember you. But don’t worry: They always ask politely first. The TRUE: The True live in contained, isolated communities. They’re the lucky ones; they found safety from the Singers. And while the threat of the Wicked may not be eliminated, for the True, the threat has certainly been contained… The VEXED: The Vexed are the truly fortunate ones—they survived the sting of the Singers, leaving them immune. But they’re far from safe. The Vexed hold the key to a cure, and there are those who will do anything to get it. In this brilliantly realized novel, three teens—Astrid, Hank, and Natalie—start to realize that the divisions of their world aren’t as clear as they seem, and are forced to question what being wicked truly means.
