The Bastard: in her Boudoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798989886555)

He could have chosen the prettier sister but let his cock decide his wife.
Filthy rich and freshly titled, the new Baron of Milton needs but one thing to complete his entry into society: a suitable mate. Yet by gaining proper, bespectacled Miss Winthrop for his bride, he paves the way for his arch-nemesis to pursue a similar union, forcing Milton to revisit his sordid past. Demons long buried soon plague his future hopes, turning him into precisely the sort of man he swore never to become.

She hated her bastard of a husband but relished his heavy hand.
Elizabeth Winthrop must marry the dastardly Baron of Milton to spare her sister Annabelle that awful fate. Yet the moment she does, Bella lands in even hotter water. Meanwhile, Lizzie's arrogant new husband turns out to be a disciplinary brute. She struggles to abide by his ungodly rules even as she warms to his lusty bed. But when he snaps the tenuous bond they've just begun to form, she turns her back on their relationship for good.

Can Milton heal his tortured soul and repair his broken marriage? Can Elizabeth see past her husband's failings to his damaged, lonely heart?
With cameos by characters from The Fox in his Henhouse, this second book in The Dubious Mates series is a darker historical romance containing both domestic discipline and scenes from 1839 London's underworld of gambling and prostitution. Like every Remillard Romance, the intimate encounters in this open-door novel are written in a more literary, 'steamy-yet-polite' style. Peek inside the book for complete content warnings.
