THE WILD MARQUIS
Avon. ISBN: 978-0-06-180870-8
The Marquis of Chase is not a reputable man.
He is notorious for his wretched morals and never received in respectable houses. The ladies of the ton would never allow him in their drawing rooms . . . though some of them have welcomed him into their bedchambers. Rejected from his father’s house at the age of sixteen, he now lives a life of wanton pleasure. So what could the Marquis of Chase possibly want with Juliana Merton, a lovely, perfectly upstanding shopkeeper with a mysterious past?
A moment’s indiscretion?
A night’s passion?
Or a lifetime of love?
Even the wildest rakes have their weaknesses . . .

Neville brings on the sizzle along with an intriguing and unique Regency backdrop -- a nobleman's "addiction" to rare book collecting -- in the well-crafted start to the Burgundy series. RTBook Reviews

NEVER RESIST TEMPTATION
Avon. ISBN: 9780061715914
"I can resist everything except temptation."
--Oscar Wilde
Beautiful, spirited Jacobin de Chastelux would have been the perfect prize for any man ... but she never imagined one would win her at a game of cards! When she learns that her dissolute, dastardly uncle and guardian had wagered her virtue--and lost--she flees. A cunning disguise and her culinary talents land her in the royal kitchen as a chef. All is well until her uncle dines with the prince and is poisoned by one of her pastries. Jacobin must escape again ... to the home of the very man who won her in that infamous game!
Lord Storrington knows nothing of the true identity of the new cook. All he knows is that things are heating up--and the sparks aren't coming from the stove. A delicious ecstasy tempts the scoundrel and the chef ... one that can only end with sweet, sweet surrender.
