About this ebook

A debutante, a disgraced lord, and a dead body. A disaster... or the grimmest meet-cute in Regency London?


Miss Delilah Bancroft has a problem. A sizable and rather bloody one. Namely, a dead man on the library floor. She’d only wished for a moment of solitude out of the glaring eyes of Society. Instead, she’s caught red-handed (unfortunately, literally) by an attractive stranger. Is he her salvation or ruination?


Marcus, Lord Wyndam has inherited a decrepit castle and a tainted title. During his desperate search for evidence to silence whispers of treason against his father, he stumbles across a woman holding a deadly stiletto over a body. Is she murderer or pawn? What he knows for sure is that she is his only link to the truth. With enemies beating down the door, he spirits her from the scene before she is discovered with blood on her hands—and her pretty white debutante dress—to unearth her part in the grisly plot.


Delilah proves herself to be a woman of wit and courage as well as beauty, and as the only person who might be able to identify the man behind the plot that ruined his father, Marcus must keep her close. Even if he has to ruin her to do it.


Warning: Contains a lady who longs for adventure, a man of honor who longs for respectability, and a head long rush through London’s ballrooms on the hunt for both. Will they live to love another day?

Historical Romance is not my preferred genre, but I have loved everything else I have read by Ms. Trentham and thought I would give A Sinful Surrender a try. There was a nice blend of Regency mannerisms and a powerful mindset in the characters of Delilah and Marcus. Delilah might have been controlled by the stipulations and social regulations of the times, but she was still a powerful woman in her own right. Marcus was appreciative of the characteristics that set her apart from the other women of their time. The mystery was intriguing and added much to the story and helped display the wit of Delilah. I was given a complimentary copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.

WOW!!! I loved, loved, loved A Sinful Surrender by Laura Trentham, book four in her Spies and Lovers series. This story has the all the fixings one would expect from a historical suspense. We have the mystery when Delilah Bancroft overhears a murder occuring while hiding away in a library. Then there’s the hero, Marcus, Lord Wyndam, who is desparately searching for evidence to clear his late father from the rumors of treason when he encounters Delilah red-handed, holding a deadly stiletto over the body. Being the gentleman, he helps her escape the scene before she is discovered with blood on her hands and white debutante dress. Delilah is not the delicate flower her parents think she is; she is intelligent, courageous, and beautiful. Marcus is hopeful that she can identify the man behind the plot that ruined his father. That means he must keep Delilah close to him, even if he has to ruin her in order to do so; which is not as difficult as it sounds. I loved the sense of adventure Delilah had, as well as her ability to adapt to whatever situation she found herself in. Marcus was a true gentleman, not that it stopped him from enjoying himself with Delilah. I really loved reading this book and had a great deal of trouble putting this book down. Ms. Trentham wrote a beautiful love story that is not to be missed. She provided a tale rich with She provided a tale rich with kindness, magnetic attraction, off the charts chemistry, amusing conversations, and endearing characters giving Delilah and Marcus a chance at finding a forever love. I highly recommend A Sinful Surrender to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
