Reviews
Beautifully written, emotional and romantic, this novel hit all the right notes for me.Amazon review
“A well written series starter that drew me in from the start. I loved both Charles & Nellie their attraction was apparent from the start but misunderstanding & wrong assumptions made the road to their HEA very rocky but also very entertaining. Their verbal sparring had me engrossed & I read the book in two sittings & finished it with a smile on my face. I look forward to more in the series.” Amazon Reviewer
Review: 5 stars
A sweet unforgettable kiss that changed their lives forever!
‘Never Doubt a Duke’, written by Maggi Andersen , is a charming Regency story with loving characters. What attracted me to read this book is that the hero and heroine are two broken souls because their hearts have been broken in the past. I just love this genre of story. It has every elements to please Regency lovers like me. I couldn’t have asked for more.
The intrigue is well developed, believable and well-written. An unforgettable kiss will do its magic again and send sparks to ignite a beautiful passion.
Ms. Andersen’s style of writing kept my interest throughout the whole book.
Thank you Dragonblade Publishing and NetGalley for providing me a digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

The Scandalous Lyon
AMAZON
Enter the world of the most notorious gambling den in London, where matches are made… unusually. Welcome to the world of THE LYON’S DEN: The Black Widow of Whitehall Connected World, where the underground of Regency London thrives… and loves.
An introductory novella to the upcoming Never Series, The Scandalous Lyon is out now!
A match made in heaven. If he was sure of anything, it was this!
Love can be found in the strangest of places…
Lord Jason Glazebrook has no plans to settle down. He will not inherit for several years, and worse, he is at odds with his brother, Charles, Duke of Shewsbury, who believes him capable of a dangerous, dishonorable act.
To escape the tension at home, Jason spends many hours at his club, the Lyon’s Den in Whitehall. When the unscrupulous matchmaker, Mrs. Bessie Dove-Lyon introduces him to a debutante, Miss Beverly Crabtree, Jason considers the beautiful young lady perfect for a dalliance, and invites her to ride with him in Hyde Park.
When he discovers Beverly is a gently reared girl, he is determined not to see her again. But he cannot forget her and allows Dove-Lyon to draw him back into her net.
Despite his brother’s warning, Jason refuses to relinquish the lovely Miss Crabtree’s company. He senses she is in trouble and wants to help. And much more. He has never met a woman he wanted for his own…until he met Beverly.
But so much stands in their way.
It is only a matter of time before shame and disgrace befall the Crabtree family. While her worried mother seeks a wealthy suitor for her, Beverly tries to deny her feelings for Jason. The noble Shewsburys will never accept her as his wife.
Jason’s plan may be a possible way out of her troubles. With few options left to her, and the lure of spending days in his company, Beverly is determined to take the chance.
Their journey into the countryside to mend a family rift might bring closure, or it could go horribly wrong.
Reviews:
Miss Beverly Crabtree is desperate for a match. Her mother contracts with the infamous female owner of the Lyon Gambling Den who operates a rather unorthodox matchmaking service. It is there that Beverly meets Lord Justin Glazebrook, brother to the Duke of Shewsbury. Given his scandalous past, Lord Justin does not consider himself fit for marriage. However, there is something in Beverly’s gaze that captivates him and makes him want to get to know her. With lies, scandal and the possible ruin of Beverly’s family, it will take a great deal of resolve for the two to find their way to a future filled with love and happiness.
“The Scandalous Lyon” serves up an intriguing premise of couples discovering love in an infamous gambling den! Part of The Lyon Den: The Black Widow of Whitehall Connected World, this story stands individually. Beverly and Lord Justin are both young, but determined to forge a path forward. While the start of the story is predictable with the barrier of secrets between them, Beverly soon confesses all, taking the story in a new direction. Beverly and Justin are engaging characters. Although the young couple faces a number of obstacles, nothing seems insurmountable, as the assistance of more powerful relatives is employed. Even so, readers will enjoy whiling the afternoon away with this light, satisfying regency romance with its creative twist on matchmaking!
“After reading the first book in this new connected world of the Lyon’s Den I was excited to see who would be the next “victim” of the mysterious matchmaker, Mrs. Bessie Dove-Lyon. She ran the underground gaming house, The Lyon’s Den that catered to those looking for games of an unusual sort, and those willing to pay a good sum to marry well.
I enjoyed every word of his intriguing story and adored Jason and Beverly. An unlikely match meeting the way they did, but their journey kept me entranced because I could not wait to see what happened! I highly recommend!!”

Award winner announced October!
When a hardened pirate meets a proper English rose…
A bitter man, pirate Jack Shadow Stirling cares for little but his ship and his crew. But disaster strikes the Golden Orion; driven leagues off course in a storm, his men begin dropping like flies from typhus.
Forced to anchor in a bay on the West Africa coast to see to his men and mend damage to the hull, Jack and three of his crew go in search of fresh water and meat to shore up their dwindling supplies.
What he finds surprises him – an English lady, whom he likens to a rare orchid, is treating the sick from a nearby village, while her botanist brother, Alexander Bromley, searches for specimens.
Startled by pirates invading her small camp, Lydia Bromley snatches up her pistol and aims it at the tall, dark-haired, handsome devil who leads them. Unfazed, he grins at her and warns her that should she shoot him with a muff pistol, she would fail to kill him. But he would be annoyed.
Thus begins Lydia’s journey, discovering the love and romance she’d thought denied her… with a pirate!

Is Jack Shadow Stirling’s Days of Plunder Over?
“I love to read something where the good guy isn’t all that he should be, slightly tainted and doesn’t measure up, while the bad guy impressively steps up to the plate and wows me…Author Andersen kept me on the edge of my chair.”

Rakes are intent on something a young debutante must never give them… their virtue!
Armed with this advice from her aunt, Letitia Bromley embarks on her first Season in London. Fresh from the country, she is intent on a romantic adventure after reading the diaries of her great-great Aunt Lydia, who sailed the high seas with a pirate. But when Letty’s kind patroness begs for her help to right a wrong done to her dead husband, Letty can only respond to the lady’s distress. Can it be true that the rakish Brandon Cartwright spies for the French? Danger lurks, and Letty becomes unsure whom to trust. Her head urges her to be sensible, to go home to the man everyone in her village expects her to marry, but her heart says otherwise.
Declared the family’s black sheep by his father after a tragedy, Brandon is drawn into the spying business. He has had little regard for his life, taking on dangerous assignments, until circumstances change when he becomes involved with a stubborn young lady who is determined to help her chaperone. Brandon can’t help but admire Letty for her bravery and compassion, but while he’s intent on keeping her safe, he has no intention of drawing her into his disreputable life.
Once he sees her safely on her way back to Cumbria, he can pick up the threads of the life he lived before she came into it… or will he follow his heart – and her?

London 1816. Guy Fortescue comes to England to claim his inheritance, Rosecroft Hall, abandoned over thirty years ago when his father fled to France after killing a man in a duel. But England proves to be a dangerous place – someone wants Guy dead.
As Guy seeks to discover who lies behind the attacks on his life, he arranges a faux betrothal with Miss Horatia Cavendish.
Unfortunately, things don’t go according to plan. An aspiring poet, Hetty proves to have a mind of her own but in spite of that, Guy finds her far too alluring.
Dangerous….
Headstrong and lovely, Hetty agrees to the betrothal because it allows her to go to London where she can attend literary societies with her aunt. While her affection for Guy grows deeper, she must not forget the betrothal isn’t real. Guy will choose a bride from the beau monde – it will not be a colonel’s daughter from Digswell.
But Hetty is soon drawn into Guy’s life, more and more, and not entirely against her will. He is handsome and brave, and the attraction between them is undeniable. Soon, she can no longer resist her desire for him and the fact that someone is out to kill him only feeds her innate protectiveness of the man she is betrothed to. As attempts are made on Guy’s life, Hetty and his sister, Genevieve, work together to keep him alive, and a love that has been denied finally comes to fruition in the exciting conclusion.
Publisher’s Note: This book was previously released in the UK under the title A Dangerous Deception, but new content has been added and the story edited to produce a quality, new tale. Enjoy!

Lady Honor’s Debt
“I really enjoyed this novel. It was fun, thrilling, and romantic! A wonderful story filled with fantastic characters that you can’t help but fall in love with!”
Lady Faith Takes a Leap
“I enjoyed the story and characters, it was well written, and flowed wonderfully. I liked the little bumps and surprises that popped up along the way. A wonderful story!”
Lady Hope and the Duke of Darkness
“I do wish to thank Miss Anderson for giving us the gift of her talent.”
The Seduction of Lady Charity

Sevenoaks, Kent, March 1914. Adelaide Sherringham has lived at Langley since she was born. Her one desire is to remain there for the rest of her life.

And that, she considers, is the only acceptable thing about it.
Bryce will be good for Langley. He spent his school holidays there and loves it almost as much as she does. She knows he will care for the lands and the mansion, and keep the estate intact, for his lifetime at least. It is a balm for the deep ache she feels for her father, and what is soon to come. The tragic loss of a beloved parent and her cherished home.
But war is looming, and Addy knows it will bring great change to England. She cannot conceive of the direction life would then take her.

A sexy Georgian Romance as only bestselling author Maggi Andersen can deliver!
A country-bred girl, Kate Bancroft always intended to marry for love, like her parents. She wanted a husband who adored her, who would be her knight in shining armor. But her plans don’t go as she had hoped – suddenly, she finds herself married to a marquess, and her new husband an aloof stranger determined to keep his thoughts and feelings to himself.
It is the unfortunate truth that she and Lord St. Malin have been forced by circumstances to marry, and Kate is painfully aware that she is not the woman he would have chosen given a choice.
Robert makes it plain that marriage is merely for the procreation of an heir, and once that is achieved, he intends to continue in London living the life he enjoyed before he met her. Kate suspects Robert plans to tuck her away in the country, while he pursues his own interests, and she becomes determined not to let him have it all his own way.
A quiet battle ensues. Kate is left to wander the echoing corridors of St. Malin House, when she isn’t thrown into the midst of the mocking and clever Haute Ton. She’s not at all sure she likes them, as they live by their own rules, which seem rather shocking.
She’s not at all sure she likes her new husband either, except for his brilliant blue eyes, the panther-like way he walks, and the smoldering expression in his eyes when he looks at her. He is a rake and does not deserve her love, but neither can she resist his searing touch.
Robert appears quite willing to do his duty, but Kate demands love and affection, and nothing less will do.
Can people from two worlds, and two ideals, find their happily ever after?
(Originally published as The Reluctant Marquess but extensively rewritten and edited)
Reviews:
“What a wonderful book. A veritable delight to read and had me totally entranced by the characters,
The broody and stern Robert, the confused but determined Kate, the enigmatic and teasing Southmore,
all playing perfect parts to bring fun and tension to this story.”
“I laughed, cried, huffed mainly at Robert, wow I wanted to shake that man. A thrilling and addictive book that I read in one sitting, finding it very hard to put down, and a definite 5 stars, I wish I could give it more.”
This is the first book that I have read by Maggi Andersen, and I found it to be captivating from the start! Our Hero and Heroine, Robert and Kate, will capture your heart!
I loved Kate’s determination, her kindness, and her compassion. Robert was leery of falling in love…will he ever surrender his heart to the sweet and lovely Kate? Maggi Andersen weaves a beautiful tale of the power of love to transform and to heal.
