Here’s The Adventures of Xavier & Vic book 1: The Troublesome Apprentice
While investigating the death of a friend and client, Maddy Hamilton, Xavier Thorn (reputed to be the greatest sleuth in England) is greatly impressed with Maddy’s nephew, Victor, and offers him a job as his secretary. Aware of Xavier’s history of firing secretaries, Victor garners a promise that for three months he cannot be fired. Vic then proceeds, in Xavier’s view, to be cheeky and impertinent at every turn. Xavier endures the impudent pup because Victor is most skilled in extracting the truth from clients and intuiting facts with little evidence to assist.
As they solve a string of cases, Xavier discovers a few more important details about his troublesome apprentice, such as her true gender, and the realization that she has awakened his long dormant heart.

Thanks, Ella. I tweeted about this. Here’s mine for Blinded By Grace.
Halwyn Fitzpatrick doesn’t need a Cotillion Ball or his mother to help him find a wife. He has a fine job, working with his father at the family bank, and helping his parents ride herd on his younger siblings, which leaves him with little time to court a woman, especially the ones his mother presents to him. Besides, he’ll know the right woman when he sees her, especially now that he has new spectacles. But his mother has other plans. Halwyn is 27, way past time for him to marry.
Grace Wagner needs to find a husband by July, or she will lose a considerable trust to her mother and stepfather, who has a gambling problem. She’s been in love with Halwyn since she was thirteen, but he hasn’t even been aware of her as they attended the Cotillions every year. This is her last chance, and Halwyn is her man. But can a knight in shining armor and a desperate damsel in distress save each other?

Here’s the blurb for my forthcoming THE SHARP HOOK OF LOVE, about Abelard and Heloise, the famous 12th-century Parisian intellectuals and lovers:
“While I sleep you never leave me, and after I wake I see you, as soon as I open my eyes, even before the light of day itself.”
—Abelard to Heloise
Among the young women of 12th century Paris, Heloise d’Argenteuil stands apart. Extraordinarily educated and quick-witted, she is being groomed by her uncle to become an abbess in the service of God.
But with one encounter, her destiny changes forever.
Pierre Abelard, headmaster at the Nôtre Dame Cloister School, is acclaimed as one of the greatest philosophers in France. His controversial reputation only adds to his allure, yet despite the legions of women swooning over his poetry and dashing looks, he is captivated by the brilliant Heloise alone.
As their relationship blossoms from a meeting of the minds to a forbidden love affair, both Heloise and Abelard must choose between love, duty, and ambition.
Sherry Jones weaves the lovers’ own words into an evocative account of desire and sacrifice. As intimate as it is erotic, as devastating as it is beautiful, The Sharp Hook of Love is a poignant, tender tribute to one of history’s greatest romances, and to love’s power to transform and endure.
“Jones’s impeccable eye for detail and beautifully layered plot makes this not only a standout historical, but an impressive novel in its own right, regardless of genre.” —Publishers Weekly on Four Sisters, All Queens
SHERRY JONES is also the author of Four Sisters, All Queens; The Sword of Medina; and her controversial, internationally bestselling debut, The Jewel of Medina. She lives in Spokane, Washington. Visit authorsherryjones.com.
THE SHARP HOOK OF LOVE debuts Nov. 25.

Determined to go through with the wedding, she allows nothing she encounters at the gloomy Castle St. Clare to dissuade her.
He wants nothing to do with her.
Recently returned from the Continent, Lucien has no time for the English mouse his family has arranged for him to marry, not when he’s plotting to avenge the murder of his beloved Francesca. He has no intention of bedding Rosalind, not even to sire an heir.
Dark secrets will bind them.
Though spurned by her bridegroom, Rosalind turns to him for protection when she is plagued by a series of mysterious accidents and haunted by terrifying visions. Forced to keep Rosalind close, and tempted into passionate kisses, Lucien soon finds himself in grave danger of falling in love with his own wife…

Thanks, Ella. Here`s mine for The Thief and the Rogue
Lady Katherine Hamilton is a free spirit—a child of nature who believes in of love at first sight. However, her dreams are derailed when she breaks into the duke’s house on a mission of mercy. She becomes embroiled in a scandal, and the perfect means for the darkly brooding duke to seek retribution for the crimes against him.
Hunter’s bitterness blinds him to her innocence, as much as her beauty blinds his reasoning. To thwart his enemies and satisfy his own passionate yearnings, he forces her to marry him. He has no idea when he uses her in his plot of revenge that she’ll be the healing force his tortured soul has been searching for. Not until she becomes the target of the murderer he’s been stalking does he admit the deep and everlasting love that sets his blood afire. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007B2LY5K
