He swore he would never touch her... As his best friend lay dying on the battlefield, Gabriel Davenport made a pair of promises: - One, that he would make sure Hart's little sister, Abigail, married another man. - And two, that Gabe, a notorious rake with a reputation for being a magnificent lover, would never lay a hand on her. Four years later, Gabe has inherited his great-uncle's estate, and along with it, his great-uncle's astronomical debts. He needs to marry an heiress, but there isn't time to find one. If he can't produce five hundred pounds immediately, his great-uncle's creditors are going to seize everything, including his poor great-aunt's wedding ring. A scandalous solution... Gabe can only think of one way to come up with the blunt: put himself up for sale in London's most notorious bachelor auction. He'll have to spend the night pleasuring the highest bidder... no matter who it might be. But what will Gabe do when the unthinkable comes to pass, and the winner of his auction is Abigail, Hart's now-widowed little sister? It's his worst nightmare... but also his dream come true. What's a notorious rake to do? Please note that the heat level is red hot! If you like reading about widows who are single and looking to mingle with some of England's most notorious scoundrels, be sure to check out the Wicked Widows' League!

Book Description
A Recommended Read from: The Los Angeles Times * Town and Country * The Seattle Times * Publishers Weekly * Lit Hub * Crime Reads * Alma From the author of The Real Lolita and editor of Unspeakable Acts, the astonishing story of a murderer who conned the people around him—including conservative thinker William F. Buckley—into helping set him free In the 1960s, Edgar Smith, in prison and sentenced to death for the murder of teenager Victoria Zielinski, struck up a correspondence with William F. Buckley, the founder of National Review. Buckley, who refused to believe that a man who supported the neoconservative movement could have committed such a heinous crime, began to advocate not only for Smith’s life to be spared but also for his sentence to be overturned. So begins a bizarre and tragic tale of mid-century America. Sarah Weinman’s Scoundrel leads us through the twists of fate and fortune that brought Smith to freedom, book deals, fame, and eventually to attempting murder again. In Smith, Weinman has uncovered a psychopath who slipped his way into public acclaim and acceptance before crashing down to earth once again. From the people Smith deceived—Buckley, the book editor who published his work, friends from back home, and the women who loved him—to Americans who were willing to buy into his lies, Weinman explores who in our world is accorded innocence, and how the public becomes complicit in the stories we tell one another. Scoundrel shows, with clear eyes and sympathy for all those who entered Smith’s orbit, how and why he was able to manipulate, obfuscate, and make a mockery of both well-meaning people and the American criminal justice system. It tells a forgotten part of American history at the nexus of justice, prison reform, and civil rights, and exposes how one man’s ill-conceived plan to set another man free came at the great expense of Edgar Smith’s victims.

Book Description
During the Civil War, scoundrels from both the Union and Confederate sides were able to execute illicit, but ingenious, schemes to acquire Texas cotton. Texas was the only Confederate state that bordered a neutral country, it was never forcibly conquered, and its coast was impossible to effectively blockade. Using little known contemporary sources, this story reveals how charlatans exploited these conditions to run the blockade, import machinery and weapons, and defraud the state's most prominent political, military and civilian leaders in the process. Best known for his role in the romantic entanglements of his co-conspirator William Sprague, Harris Hoyt stands out due to his sharp intellect and fascinating character. Hoyt was able to draw most of Abraham Lincoln's inner circle into his web of deceit and even influenced the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson. This is the first account to expose the depth and breadth of the many Texas cotton trading scams and the sheer audacity of the shadowy men who profited from them, but managed to escape the gallows.
