The Rake and The Recluse: A Tale of Two Brothers

She woke up that morning in the twenty-first century. By that afternoon she was owned.

Francine Larrabee built her life on ambition and independence - until a car crash rips her out of her own century and drops her into the body of an ancestor in Victorian England, betrothed to a man determined to destroy her.

Her only shield against ruin is Gideon Trumbull, Duke of Roxleigh: a man armored in propriety, allergic to scandal, and utterly unprepared for a woman who refuses to be tamed by an era that wasn't built for her.

But Gideon isn't the only Trumbull fighting for a love he doesn't think he deserves. Gideon's brother Perry has his own reckoning coming, with a woman whose scars run deeper than anyone can see, and whose trust may be the hardest thing he's ever had to earn.

Two brothers.

Two women who refuse to be broken.

One unforgettable story of desire, propriety shattered, and love that crosses centuries.

Sensual, cinematic, and gorgeously illustrated - The Rake and The Recluse is the acclaimed launch to Jenn LeBlanc's Lords of Time series, blending time-travel romance with searing Victorian heat.

Perfect for readers who love their historicals with a twist - and their heroes stifled by duty... until they aren't anymore.
