Hell In A Handbasket

Book excerpt: Sometimes a lady needs a hero who is willing to break the rules in order to save her. Sophia Babineaux has landed a husband! And a good one at that! Lord Harold, the second son of a duke, is kind, gentle, undemanding. Perhaps a little too undemanding? Because after one chance encounter with skilled rake, Captain Devlin Brooks, it is glaringly obvious that something is missing between Lord Harold and herself… passion… sizzle… well… everything. And marriage is forever! Will her parents allow her to reconsider? Absolutely not. War hero, Devlin Brookes, is ready to marry and thinks Sophia Babineaux might be the one. One itsy bitsy problem: she’s engaged to his cousin, Harold. But Devlin knows the truth about his cousin and damned if Harold hasn’t been coerced into this betrothal by his manipulative father, the Duke of Prescott—a man who always gets what he wants. Devlin, Sophia and Harold conspire to thwart the duke’s wishes but fail to consider a few vital, unintended consequences. Will fate step aside for these two soulmates, or will it punish them forever for daring to claim their happily ever after? An epic romance for two people willing to go through hell for one another... in a hand basket, of course. To Hell in a Hand Basket is Book 2 in Annabelle Anders’ wildly popular Devilish Debutantes’ Series.
