When Scandal Came to Town — Adele Clee

Can a past betrayal ever be forgiven?

A shocking surprise awaits him at the Serpentine.

When Benedict Cavanagh, the illegitimate son of the Earl of Tregarth, discovers the lady he was once destined to marry lying half-naked and ruined in Hyde Park at dawn, his conscience demands he does something to save her. He might have spirited her home before the first riders took to the Row, but the villain behind the staged ruination had other evil plans.

A lady used as a pawn in a wicked game.

The last thing Cassandra Mills deserved was Benedict Cavanagh's kindness and compassion. Five years had passed since she professed her love and promised to marry him. Five years had passed since she buckled beneath the weight of responsibility and rejected the handsome rogue. But when she finds herself in a terrifying predicament, the man who should despise her is the one who offers his help.
A romantic adventure for two people looking to heal their broken hearts.

Working together to find the person plotting to ruin their lives, Benedict and Cassandra attempt to unravel the pieces of the mystery. But when their suspicions circle around friends and family members, the only people they can trust are each other. Can they overcome their bitterness and learn to love again? Can they find the villain responsible for their predicament before he drives them apart for good?
