New Release: Love’s Game

June 22, 2021 by Elizabeth Drake

Love’s Game is Now Available!

All he ever wanted was love. Until he found it.

Wealthy. Powerful. Brilliant. Lord Alexander Brighton has everything. Everything except a countess he loves. After a decade of searching, Alexander finally decides to settle for a comfortable society marriage that will provide him with the heir he needs.

Sometimes love is where you least expect to find it.

Lady Rebecca Addington never wished for love. That was far too much to hope for from the society match her family planned for her. Instead, she prays that she can respect the husband they choose for her. Maybe even like him.

But everything changes the night an unholy mage abducts Rebecca and her brother.

Alexander’s timely arrival saves Rebecca, but the mage still has her bother. And only Alexander can find him. As they search for her brother, Rebecca promises herself she is absolutely not falling in love with the cold and aloof Lord Alexander Brighton. Even if he is as brilliant as the gossips say and twice as handsome.

As they close in on the unholy mage, Alexander is absolutely not falling in love with the fierce, independent, and strong-willed Lady Addington. Or so he prays.

The unholy mage won’t give up Rebecca’s brother easily, and he still needs Rebecca to complete his ritual. As the forces of darkness close in on them, only together can Alexander and Rebecca save her brother and end the threat stalking her. But first, they both have to accept the gods’ gift of love.

Ninth book in the Knights of Valor series. Standalone. NO cheating. And a happily-ever-after guaranteed.

Now Available!

Release Day: The Earl’s Shadowguard

September 16, 2020 by Elizabeth Drake

If you haven’t had a chance, you can pick it up here.

What do you do when the one thing you most want is the one thing you can’t have?

Ten summers ago, Jade made a mistake and fell in love with the wrong man. An earl’s son so less. But she atoned for her sin and even earned a position in the king’s elite bodyguard. Well, almost earned it. Her last task before entering and giving up her identity forever is to solve the murder of a wealthy and influential countess… who just so happened to marry the man Jade still loves.

Logan Warrington, Seventh Earl of Farron, has always done what he’s supposed to do, including marry the “right” woman from the “right” family, which hadn’t included the carriage driver’s daughter he’d been infatuated with as a boy. But when he’s framed for the murder of his wife, Logan gets a second chance with that carriage driver’s daughter, and Jade might be the only one that can prove his innocence.

But second chances aren’t free, and those who killed the countess will stop at nothing to keep their secrets. As the killers close in, it will take all of Jade’s skill as a bodyguard to keep Logan alive, and even if she does, nothing can close the gap between earl and servant. Nothing, except maybe love.

“You must be the child that almost cost the king his life.”

Jade swallowed hard but didn’t deny it.
