And The Underworld attracts London’s darkest characters – the perfect partners in crime.

But when Lady Vivienne Beaumont enters The Underworld, Max’s life becomes more dangerous than he ever thought possible.Enter a world of lust, lawlessness and obsession with The Den of Iniquity, the first in Anabelle Bryant’s Bastards of London series.

Determined to return and redeem his reputation, the last thing he desires is the complications associated with matters of the heart. He once believed in love, but knows better now how fickle the emotion.

All she wishes is to show society her better side and find a kind gentleman to share her life. No rakes or rogues will do. It's a dependable, sensible man she seeks...and certainly not the likes of reckless, vengeful, and oh so handsome, Crispin Daventry.
