Passion is on the cards for two reckless rogues as K. J. Charles ups the ante in her Society of Gentlemen series with a sizzling eBook short story. The youngest son and the blackest sheep in his family, Lord Gabriel Ashleigh never imagined he could sink so low. Though he’s a notoriously bad gambler, he takes on the formidable but strangely alluring Francis Webster, only to lose everything: all his money, the lovely estate he inherited from his aunt, and any hope of future happiness. So it’s a shock when Webster summons him to a private game for a chance to win back his possessions. The stake? If he fails, Ash must surrender his body. Francis has been waiting years for this moment. At Eton, Ash’s elder brother harassed him relentlessly. Now, consumed by lust and rage, Francis is only too happy to exploit Ash’s foolish indiscretions. But as Francis strips the magnificently built youth—first of his family assets, then his clothes—he begins to wonder whether he’s been plotting revenge . . . or exquisite seduction.And look for the enticing Society of Gentlemen series by KJ Charles:THE RUIN OF GABRIEL ASHLEIGH | A FASHIONABLE INDULGENCE | A SEDITIOUS AFFAIR | A GENTLEMAN’S POSITIONDon’t miss any of the captivating Sins of the Cities novels:AN UNSEEN ATTRACTION | AN UNNATURAL VICE | AN UNSUITABLE HEIRPraise for The Ruin of Gabriel Ashleigh “Oh my goodness, this short story was so gloriously sexy!”—Just Love Includes a special message from the editor, as well as an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

If you’re anything like me – you either have, or would like to have, a love affair with cigars. Whether you are a cigar connoisseur or just getting started you know that a great cigar can mark a memory for life. Just like certain aromas or a special song on the radio will trigger a look back, fond or otherwise, the right cigar at the right time will forever be a placeholder in your mind. I’m not talking about the cigars you might smoke every day. No – I’m talking about the ones you save for, the ones you savor, the ones you may only be able to afford once in a lifetime. Like a fine bottle of wine for a special occasion – an excellent cigar celebrates the milestones in one’s life. Just before my 50th birthday I decided that I would celebrate the year by smoking each of the top 25 cigars on the 2013 Cigar Aficionado’s list. This book is a review of those cigars and a few other gems I discovered on my journey. Each smoke marks the story of a special place, person or event. Draw deep and enjoy.
