About the book: year / MASTERS OF DECEPTION Orphan Emily Fock may be London's most skilled pickpocket, but she is confident that her biggest fraud will also be her last. Because when she finds the treasure hidden in the magnificent estate of Valin North, she will be rich enough to give her loved ones everything they want... and she will never again have to steal to provide herself with dinner. Posing as a flirtatious debutante going out into society, Emmy slips into North's entourage... and is immediately attracted to the voluptuous nobleman. Suddenly, stealing from North becomes more than just cheating. It feels like a betrayal... MASTER OF CONTROL Valin North knows he must get a wife to produce an heir, but every woman he meets inspires his contempt. Except for one... unusual, charming debutante; Unfortunately, her social status makes her more suitable for the role of his mistress than his wife. And yet, despite family pressure to find a more suitable match for him, North boldly pursues the enchanting woman... even as his affections are clouded by mysterious contradictions in his lady's past. North's awakened suspicions force him to wonder: has this seductive beauty run away with his heart... or something more? There are people who go through life boldly, challenging difficulties, lovingly supporting everyone around them. My aunt, Georgia Mae Womack, did exactly this to me and my family. I dedicate this book with love and gratitude to her.
