A man with something to hide, and a woman with nowhere to go - and neither can leave the island until morning...
Luke, the Marquis of Dewsbury, is a complete rogue. Bested by none and adored by many, he finds himself sent away from town by his embarrassed father where he discovers the young and innocent Miss Adena Garland.
At only eighteen years old, she becomes his unlikely companion as they become trapped on an island after high tide.
The night is long, and likely to be cold - but the heat rising between Miss Garland and the Marquis of Dewsbury could keep both of them warm.
Will Luke continue his stream of conquests? Or will Adena find being marooned with a Marquis enough to give into temptation?
This is the fourth in a series of eight Ravishing Regencies.
This is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after, no cliffhangers, and part of a series that can be read in any order.

Marooned with a Marquis is the fourth book in Murdoch’s Ravishing Regencies series by Emily Murdoch. Wow! What a ride! I couldn’t put this novella down. When Adena Garland gets stranded on a deserted island by the evening tides, she is rescued by a dashing stranger and they must spend the night together to survive. “She looked at him, and her cheeks flamed even deeper as the thought crossed her mind, the more she noticed just how handsome he was. Tall, with chestnut hair that was a little too long to be fashionable, broad shoulders and a grin that none of her words seemed to have wiped from his face.”
Murdoch very quickly drew me into this tale of romance and deception. There are a number of sex scenes in the book that are quite steamy. For the cover, I adore these two models. They make frequent appearances together on other romance book covers and they take a perfect Regency era picture together. I can’t wait to read the next installment in this series.
