When Azalea, the beautiful Viscountess Trench, receives a note threatening to expose her adulterous love letters unless she pays up, she faces even greater anxieties than most blackmail victims.

In fact, there seems to be a great deal she can’t remember, which puts her at considerable disadvantage when facing down a blackmailer. In desperation, she turns to her sister Grizelda, recently returned from her honeymoon, to track down the culprit before her beloved husband finds out.
But Eric, Lord Trench, has grown tired of waiting patiently for his wife to come back to him. When he finds her in a bizarre assignation, he sees red, and demands that she gives him her trust and her love. If it is not already too late.
For worse dangers than scandal stalk Azalea and they will need to work fast if they are to save their marriage – and Azalea’s very life.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Eric, Lord Trench loves his wife desperately, but they have drifted apart. He knows that something has changed and wants to fix it.
This is a lovely historical romance that has a big mystery to solve. Just how naughty has our heroine been in her "brain fog"??
Can our loving hero see past what might or might not have happened???
Really great fun,. This is the second book in this series but easily read on it's own. I don't know if the rest of the series has the Tizlas involved, if not I can see a possible series related to Griz and her husband's special talents being used by others.
I loved every page and can't wait to read more.

Although she has always written stories for her own entertainment, she began to make serious efforts toward publication in order to distract herself from a job she disliked. She now writes full time at her seaside home in Scotland, which she shares with her husband and three children.
