A Season of Borrowed Diamonds: A Regency Romance Novel
About this ebook
London, 1819. Lady Juliette Harcourt once leveled a pistol at a lord who mistook her widowhood for weakness, and Mayfair has not stopped whispering since. Now she returns for one purpose only: to secure a brilliant Season for her sister. Every smile is strategy, every alliance calculated, and even the diamonds at her throat are not what they seem.
Alexander Bentley, a physician with no title and no patience for society's rules, sees through her careful performance at once. He is the first man who does not fear her — and the only one who threatens her control.
But her late husband's family has arrived in London, determined to reclaim what they believe is theirs and expose Juliette as an impostor, destroying her sister's only chance at a future.
Juliette has sacrificed everything once before. She will not fail her sister now, even if it costs her the one thing she swore never to risk again.
Her heart.

About the author
Violet Sinclair writes historical romance for readers who believe a glance across a ballroom can ruin you more thoroughly than a kiss.
Her heroines are American — bold, inconvenient, and absolutely unwilling to be grateful for the privilege of marrying into British aristocracy. They crossed an ocean with their own money and their own opinions, and they have no intention of leaving either at the door. Her heroes are titled, impeccable, and accustomed to women who follow the rules. They have never met anyone like her. They are not prepared.
