Cast In Boxed Set #1-3
Book 1: CAST IN SHADOWS
GIDEON WAVERLEY, heir to the Duke of Townsend, had everything a young man could need―a promising future, a title, charming good looks, great friends, and a family who adored him. Until his body turned him into a monster. He had no choice but to separate himself from the world, to hide his monstrous self from society, to cast away his future. But the brilliant and beautiful EVE CORNWELL refused to believe he could not be saved, even as she refused to guard her heart. And all the while she knew she couldn’t keep him once she’d loved him back into the light.
Book 2: CAST IN RUIN
BENJAMIN WAVERLEY, second son of the Duke of Townsend, knew he’d never marry. How could he? The moment some unsuspecting female took his name, the world might find out the despicable secret his family had been keeping and he’d be ruined. As far as he was concerned, his lot was cast. He would play the rake and that would be that. Until his father forced his hand in a marriage he knew would destroy not only him but his brilliant and beautiful bride. LADY RACHAEL NEWTON, daughter of the Earl of Kendrick, refused Benjamin Waverley’s proposal not once but twice. He’d never have offered for her hand if he’d known the secret she kept from the entire world. Even her parents didn’t know. Her weakness had ruined her once, but if her greater secret were found out her entire family would themselves suffer ruin. She wouldn’t have it. But then, the matter wasn’t hers to decide.
Book 3: CAST IN ICE
LADY WINNIFRED WAVERLEY, daughter of the Duke of Townsend, walked the fringes of Society harboring a horrible secret. A secret so damning that it would shatter her entire family and destroy any chance for her younger sister Anne to find a love match. When the blackmail notes arrived on her doorstep, Lady Winnifred had no choice but to go time and again to The Soiled Dove, a secret gambling hell, where she won…and won…and won. Her brilliance at the gaming tables provided the only way she could gather funds to pay her blackmailers. But in so doing, she played into the hands of The Dove’s unscrupulous owners. Now there was only one man who could save her from ruination at their hands. One man who guessed her secret. One man who stirred her frozen heart. One man who nearly died in her place. NICK STILLMAN knew he was right. Lady Winnifred was harboring a killer everyone thought was dead. But he couldn’t prove it. Not without getting closer to the woman. If he could manage that, he could bring a fugitive to justice and free Lady Winnifred from her desperate need for funds. If he could manage that, Winnie would no longer feel the need to risk her virtue by gambling at The Soiled Dove. If he could manage that, he might have a chance at thawing the icy resolve of the lady who had stolen his heart.

A family scandal, haunted by murder and greed for power.
Gideon's story was heart wrenching and a mystery. Who submit in a different scale. Intreague from the beginning. Brilliant!
Ben's story started off a bit slow but soon the relationship between Rachel and himself became quite captivating with a magical twist. The scandal of his mother creating her more intreague.
Winnie 's story was again a bit slow to begin with but gained momentum and became quite the action and mystery.
A good box set with lots to keep the reader's attention. Heart wrenching at times, especially
Gideon's story.
If you want a regency story with everything in it choose this selection.
Cool read.

Cast in Scandal Boxes Set
Three books filled with intrigue, a vicious villain, mystery and romance. I loved the heroes and heroines in all three books. They were faced with tough situations that they triumphed over. Amazing and pretty clean as well.
