In this sparkling early Victorian romance by USA Today bestselling Sydney
Jane Baily, a reticent musician gets caught in the web of the one-of-a-kind
diamond daughter.

She’s open-hearted and guileless, but he’s been fooled before.
Twice!

Brilliance Diamond is one of a kind amongst her siblings. Unpredictable,
some might say feather-brained, but always with the best intentions. Alas,
when she says aloud things that others only dare think, she ends up in the
suds time and again—until an impulsive act leads her directly into the
arms of her prince charming.

Lord Vincent Hewitt, parliamentarian and pianist, seems to have an unerring
ability to put his trust in the wrong person. When he meets a sweet lady who
is both honest and candid, his battered spirit starts to heal. After all,
she would never consider deceiving him. Would she?

Determined to help the reticent musician, Brilliance unwittingly sets off a
chain of events leading to betrayal and lies… and her own devastating
heartbreak. Will the treachery in Vincent’s past destroy any chance
for their sparkling happily-ever-after?

Engaging characters, attention to period detail, and passionate romance
with a touch of intrigue — you’ll find it all in the stories by
USA Today bestselling author Sydney Jane Baily.

Romance

Date Published: February 10, 2023

In this sizzling Regency romance by USA Today Bestselling author Charlie
Lane, a lady with a secret runs from the gentleman who loves her.

She’s not who she says she is.

Shadows, secrets, and Jackson Cavendish—all things Miss Gwendolyn
Smith runs from. She’s determined to live a life of obscurity,
studying dusty tomes. Better that steady present than her haunting past or a
future she cannot have. When a letter arrives that threatens her secrets and
Jackson tells her he’s done waiting, she must choose—face her
past and gain a future? Or continue running from both.

He fell first, but he’ll win at last.

Mr. Jackson Cavendish has chased Gwendolyn for six years but only caught
her once. In Paris at midnight. He’ll never forget what she felt like
in his arms. And he’s determined to repeat the experience. Every night
for the rest of their lives. But how to convince the woman he loves to trust
him with her secrets?

He’s tried seduction.

He’s tried retreat.

Now he’ll have to reveal his own fears and secret guilt.

When these two scholars must dig into their own pasts, they’ll learn
how to build a future from it or lose each other forever.

About the Author

else?), Toni Morrison, William Blake, Julia Quinn, and Maya Rodale.

against the rigid restrictions of their society. Officially, Charlie has a

Romance

Date Published: February 9, 2023

Publisher: WOLF Publishing

In this sparkling early Victorian romance by USA Today bestselling author
Sydney Jane Baily, a fiery-haired Diamond daughter sets her cap at this man
of science… and he doesn’t stand a chance!

She’s a gifted artisan with sparkle to spare, and he’s a
preoccupied man of science.

At Prince Albert’s Great Exhibition, Lady Radiance Diamond falls in
love… with gemstones! Jewelry-making becomes her passion, fashioning
trinkets as dazzling as her own personality. Yet when an attractive
geologist snags her fancy in the lecture hall, she wonders what it will take
to catch his eye in the ballroom.

Edward Lockwood has traveled the world, not afraid to scrabble in the muck
if it means coming home with precious stones. Charged by Queen Victoria with
a most delicate undertaking, he’s bemused to be partnered with a
fiery-haired, quick-witted earl’s daughter. An intriguing union, as
long as she doesn’t distract him!

With the royal mission growing ever more perilous, Edward keeps his focus
on sparkling emeralds over emerald-green eyes and on red rubies rather than
ruby-red lips. But Radiance wasn’t bred to be ignored or to step
aside. In the world of London’s skilled jewelers—and treacherous
thieves—can she unmask an expert forger while showing her dash-fire
geologist she’s the most precious gemstone he’s ever held?

Engaging characters, attention to period detail, and passionate romance
with a touch of intrigue — you’ll find it all in the stories by
USA Today bestselling author Sydney Jane Baily.
