A delectable true-crime story of scandal and murder at America’s most celebrated university. On November 23rd of 1849, in the heart of Boston, one of the city’s richest men simply vanished. Dr. George Parkman, a Brahmin who owned much of Boston’s West End, was last seen that afternoon visiting his alma mater, Harvard Medical School. Police scoured city tenements and the harbor, and offered hefty rewards as leads put the elusive Dr. Parkman at sea or hiding in Manhattan. But one Harvard janitor held a much darker suspicion: that their ruthless benefactor had never left the Medical School building alive. His shocking discoveries in a chemistry professor’s laboratory engulfed America in one of its most infamous trials: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts v. John White Webster. A baffling case of red herrings, grave robbery, and dismemberment—of Harvard’s greatest doctors investigating one of their own, for a murder hidden in a building full of cadavers—it became a landmark case in the use of medical forensics and the meaning of reasonable doubt. Paul Collins brings nineteenth-century Boston back to life in vivid detail, weaving together newspaper accounts, letters, journals, court transcripts, and memoirs from this groundbreaking case. Rich in characters and evocative in atmosphere, Blood & Ivy explores the fatal entanglement of new science and old money in one of America’s greatest murder mysteries.

Only one thing stands between Sebastian and his revenge. He's falling in love with his prey… Ivy Kinley destroyed a young man, heart and soul. Now, she's the target of a cruel game where she is the prize. Wagers are placed: Survive her or win her. Sebastian Cain, the Earl of Ravenswood, is undaunted by Ivy's reputation. Returning to England, he means to avenge his cousin's tragic death and ruin the woman responsible. His plan-- lull her with an offer of friendship she cannot refuse. But until he has Ivy's heart bleeding and tattered in his pocket and the lady at his mercy and begging for more, he will pursue her. Can he tame her? Perhaps. Could he ruin her? Most definitely. Should Ivy trust his offer of friendship? Absolutely not. A quest for revenge becomes a mutual obsession for them both. Who will be ruined first? Who will be tamed? ***TAMING IVY contains sexual situations described in detail between the main characters as well as instances of dubious consent, strong language, references to suicide, abduction, and mental illness. If this type of subject matter disturbs you as a reader, please understand it is an integral part of the storyline and the characters' development. There are sexual interactions that some may consider dubious consent in nature as the characters fight their feelings for each other. My characters are flawed. They do awful things, behave even worse, make mistakes, apologize, stumble yet again, and still redeem themselves for the sake of true love. I also took generous liberty with the idea of Ivy being left mainly to her own devices with a grieving, frustrated father who is absent much of the time. ***

Her five-year plan is working out smoothly until her fiancé dumps her. In utter despair, she falls into the arms of another man and ends up pregnant by either the love of her life or the man of her dreams. Grey Henderson knows what he wants and gets it.
