Heartbroken by the loss of her brother, Miss Leonora Craven vows to uncover the truth about his "accident," which seems to have been anything but. Jonathan Craven was involved with the Lords of Anarchy, a notorious driving club, and Leonora can't help but suspect foul play. But the only way she can infiltrate their reckless inner circle is to enlist the help of Jonny's closest ally, Lord Frederick Lisle. If only he didn't also happen to be the man who broke Leonora's heart . . .


Frederick isn't surprised to find gorgeous, headstrong Leonora playing detective, but he knows that the Lords of Anarchy mean business—and he has no choice but to protect her. A sham engagement to Leonora will allow Frederick to bring her into the club and along for the ride. But it isn't long before pretending to be lovers leads to very real passion. With everything to lose, is their tempestuous affair worth the risk?

      Narrator Anne Flosnik is a winner of multiple AUDIOFILE Earphones Awards because of her tremendous acting skills and vocal talents. All of them are on display in this first in the Lords of Anarchy series. When Leonora Craven's brother is killed in what is deemed an accident, she enlists the help of her former love, Lord Frederick Lisle, to discover the truth. Flosnik is incomparable in her ability to portray men and women from all strata of British society. She makes the men sound aloof, elitist, and oh so properly British and the women sound feminine, mysterious, and proper, even while they're being oh so improper. Flosnik's slight touches of wry humor to her portrayal of Lord Lisle as he tries to exercise patience in his wooing of the determined and stubborn Leonora is especially entertaining.

      Collins (the Wicked Widows series) launches the Lords of Anarchy historical series with the lure of love and mystery. Leonora Craven bemoans her limited rights as a woman in Regency England and knows that she must seek the help of her former betrothed, Lord Frederick Lisle, to solve the murder of her brother, Jonathan. Lenora believes that Jonathan’s death was linked to his membership in the Lords of Anarchy club. Freddy proposes that in order to gain entry to events hosted by the Lords of Anarchy, he and Leonora repair their broken engagement. True attraction underlies the false arrangement, but Leonora can’t bear to explain why she broke things off years ago. The sensuous love scenes are evenly matched with a captivating mystery as Leonora and Freddy work together to uncover the culprit, often putting their own lives in danger. This is a fresh and promising start to the series. Agent: Holly Root, Waxman Leavell Literary Agency.
