Description

**The** New York Times **–bestselling author “weaves passion and intrigue with a master’s touch” in this scintillating series debut (Karen Robards).** With *One Touch of Scandal* , acclaimed *New York Times* –bestselling author Liz Carlyle launches a breathtaking new historical romance series centered around the Zeno Society, a mysterious fraternity of dangerous—and dangerously attractive—men. Fans of Amanda Quick and Gaelen Foley’s Inferno Club novels will be swept away by *One Touch of Scandal* , a sensuous tale with a distinct gothic flavor—the story of an imperiled beauty accused of a heinous crime . . . and the dark lord who risks his most carefully protected secrets to come to her rescue. **”Grace’s tenacity, wit, and compassion make her a very believable, multidimensional character and the perfect match for Ruthveyn’s brooding and dark secrets. The romance sizzles, its unpredictability propelling this complex story far beyond its contemporaries.” —** Publishers Weekly **(starred review)** **”With its exceptionally rich characterization, an engaging plot that gracefully pairs danger and desire, and an intriguing touch of the paranormal, Carlyle’s latest stylishly written, lusciously sensual Regency historical romance is supremely satisfying.” —Booklist (starred review)**
