The Duke and The Baron: Absolute Surrender (Lords of Time Book 0)

This book was originally published as Absolute Surrender(no other changes have been made.)


Happiness was always too much for Lady Amelia to hope for.
Now all she expects is to secure her future and marry the Duke of Castleberry, as arranged. But Amelia has a dangerous secret that could not only destroy her in his eyes and the eyes of society, but could also very well condemn her to Bedlam.

Baron Endsleigh, Amelia's oldest friend, has other ideas. Ender has loved Amelia all his life. He knows her secrets, and they don't frighten him. He plans to come between Amelia and Charles in any way he can to prevent the marriage and finally claim Amelia for his own. Ender is determined and nothing can stop him. Not even a duke as powerful as Castleberry.

That duke has hated Baron Endsleigh and wanted Amelia for, what seems to him, forever. Charles will stop at nothing to make her his, and his alone, even if that means destroying the one thing he knows she loves most in this world--Endsleigh.

Will Amelia be able to choose when one man speaks to her mind and the other her heart?

None of them will find happiness until they all three learn to embrace the absolute surrender.

ABSOLUTE SURRENDER has been nominated for BEST HISTORICAL and BEST MÉNAGE in the 2014 in the BOOKIE awards.


This book contains a steamy M/F/M ménage romance that borders on erotic romance.
There is no crossing of swords in this novel.
In fact, these men can barely stand each other in the beginning, and only just admit to being friends in the end.

While the very nature of ménage and a particular style of language tends to categorize books as erotic romance, that's not the case here.
