Season of Sedition (Hawthorne Sisters, #2) / Hawthorne Sisters (ePub)

Reginald's mission is clear, but to rescue his Lily love, he will defy convention and break all the rules.

Enemies to Lovers

Lady Lillian Hawthorne:
Emotionally, and sometimes physically, imprisoned by her authoritarian grandfather, the Earl of Thornwood, the lovely Lady Lily hates the aristocracy, and joins a group of Bonapartists to follow her ideals of freedom and equality. She refuses to conform to the expectations of the men around her and turns down every marriage offer she receives. Her Grandfather, impatient with her bluestocking ways, sets an ultimatum, but Lily has no intention of becoming a man's pawn. Besides, she hasn't met a man worth considering, until...


Lord Reginald Burton:
He is heir to an earldom and a spy in the service of British Crown. He comes to London determined to solve the mystery of Bonaparte's previous escape from Elba and bolster the guard of the man's newest imprisonment on St. Helens. He uncovers the plot of a prison break, but the island is all but impenetrable with craggy cliffs and the might of the Royal Navy in the surrounding sea.

He won't let anything distract him from his mission, but is the lovely Lily Hawthorne a distraction, or a traitor and the key to the escape plan?

As Reginald follows the trail of intrigue, he becomes a target in the deadly game. To save himself he must take down Montgomery, and stop the plot to free Bonaparte, but how can he do so without destroying the woman at Montgomery's side, the woman he has come to love.

And if he kills Montgomery, will she hate him forever? Reginald must convince Lily that black is white, when the world is eternally shades of gray. He is determined to rescue her from herself. But first, he must convince her to trust him and he has to do it fast, because their enemies are closer than they think.
