Publisher's summary
She wakes up in the arms of the one man she can never have... but is helpless to resist. Can their forbidden love survive all that threatens them?
Lady Maria has always done as she is told—until the former Diamond of the First Water faces a husband of unspeakable cruelty, and she escapes out a window and into the night, saved by the physician who affects her as no other man has.
When Lady Maria shows up on his doorstep, injured, frightened, and alone, Dr. Hudson Lewis cannot help but look after her—even if it means sacrificing his heart to resist temptation. For he, a duke's bastard, will never be good enough for a woman like Lady Maria—especially after he has been accused of murdering his father.
To protect Maria, Hudson must set aside his pride and turn to his half-siblings, the Remingtons, for help. When danger threatens, they are all at risk and must work together to stay safe and determine who is pursuing them. Will Hudson and Maria's hearts be able to withstand all that is against them?
The Clue of the Brilliant Bastard is book three in the Remingtons of the Regency series. This steamy Regency romance series is best enjoyed in order.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,409
Hidden away in rural Devonshire, Phyllida Satterthwaite has always been considered more odd than beautiful. But in London, her oddity has made her a sensation. Far worse, it’s caught the eye of the sinister Duke of Moreland - a notorious art collector obsessed with acquiring one-of-a-kind treasures. To escape the duke’s clutches, she’s going to need a little help. Captain Arthur Heywood’s days of heroism are long past. Grievously injured in the Peninsular War, he can no longer walk unaided, let alone shoot a pistol. What use can he possibly be to a damsel in distress?

Twenty-six-year-old Beatrice Hyde-Clare is far too shy to investigate the suspicious death of a fellow guest in the Lake District. A spinster who lives on the sufferance of her relatives, she would certainly not presume to search the rooms of her host's son and his friend looking for evidence. Reared in the twin virtues of deference and docility, she would absolutely never think to question the imperious Duke of Kesgrave about anything, let alone how he chose to represent the incident to the local constable. And yet that's exactly what she does.

Olivia Moreland prides herself on discrediting charlatans, particularly the false mediums that flock to London. But when Lord Stephen St. Leger requests her help in investigating an alleged psychic's claims, she can't deny the ominous feeling she has within the walls of his ancient estate - or the intimately familiar connection she has with Stephen himself. The last time he'd called Blackhope Hall home, Stephen had watched as his elder brother claimed both the family title and the woman he loved.

Lady Clarissa Crambray wanted a husband, but maybe not as much as her stepmother wanted one for her. Really! Doffing her spectacles might make a girl prettier, but how would she see? She'd already caused enough mayhem to earn a rather horrible nickname. Yet as all other suitors seemed to shy away in terror, there came a man to lead her to the dance floor. A dark, handsome, blur of a man.
