The Gentlemen's Mercury, 1816 Princess Isabella di Cassilis urgently needs a husband -
and she is seeking him in the Fleet Prison! Anxious to find a man who
owes so much money that she can persuade him to take on her own debts
as well, Princess Isabella goes to The Fleet to search for a prisoner she
can bribe into matrimony. There she finds Marcus, Earl of Stockhaven,
the man she jilted twelve years before.
When Marcus offers to help her she is too desperate to question his motives. But does Marcus have her best interests at heart - or does he want revenge, and the wedding night they never had?

"DECEIVED is a terrific Regency
romance starring two souls in love, but their mutual past makes it seem
impossible that either will be the first to let the other know how much they
care. Fans will enjoy this fine historical starring two individuals
trying to gain control of the passion that freely flows between them."
"Isabella & Marcus are an intriguing, sensual pair, who share more than a love lost from the past. Several secondary characters add to the mix, twisting and turning the plot. Nicola Cornick entertains while depicting a realism that draws the reader into the story from beginning to end. Regency lovers will enjoy DECEIVED for its differences and unpredictability, following a path of vengeance, heartache, and passion." Dorine Linnen, RomanceJunkies. "This is exactly the kind of book I love - great characters, a great plot... It was... a lovely read." Rakehell "A well written story, DECEIVED is sure to hold Regency readers' interest as the hero and heroine let go of the past and find out if their love is real and reciprocated." Marilyn Heyman, Romance Review Today. "Nicola Cornick, a master of the Regency drama, delights the reader with innuendo, double entendre and tonnish scenes aplenty, all rife with tension and suppressed passion." Scribes Sanctuary "This extremely well-written historical romance sizzles with passion, wit, charm, humor and suspense!" Single Titles.com "Nicola Cornick has a delectable writing style. Her characters have flare and are a joy to get to know. You can count on Ms. Cornick to pen original and beguiling plots. She undoubtedly gives you a fresh new story with Deceived.

"Rumour has it that a certain notorious Princess has
not a feather to fly and is looking for a gentleman to ease her financial
