Three Devils in Bath
The Three Devils gave Mariotte everything. Passion. Protection. Love. It’ll take more than murder for her to give up their quartet.
As the Regency years approach their twilight, Lord Cedric “Seti” Edgard enjoys his idyllic existence between Extranatural society and English human haut ton. The elegant vampire’s term as Bath’s Extranatural Justice near completion, he anticipates comfortable retirement with his two vampire lovers, Troyes “Lucifer” de Pellerin, a beauteous French nobleman, and Dane “Hades” Melbourne, Seti’s charming godson and assistant. Dubbed “The Three Devils of Bath” by English high society, no man or woman is safe from their sensuous attentions. Mariotte Sabrier, a Creole musician, piques the bisexual beauty’s craving for feminine loveliness and Seti does not hesitate to offer her a place in his household and seduce her into acceptance.
Employment as a concert pianist allows Mariotte to live on her own terms, free of her dissolute half-brother’s control, far from Louisiana’s Gulf Coast and rumors of her tainted racial heritage. Lord Seti’s carte blanche offers more. Introduction as Seti’s ward into Bath’s high society grants her entrée into the English upper class and hopes of advantageous marriage. Cedric’s sinful Viking beauty and a taste of erotic gratification in his lap sweeten her acceptance. The caveat – she must entertain the vampire’s constant companions, Dane and Troyes – increases Mariotte’s intrigue.
Love, risk, pleasure, past disappointments, and danger stalk Mariotte’s endeavors to fulfill her bargain. Gorgeous high-spirited Troyes introduces Mariotte to the pursuit of pleasure for its own sake. Conservative quietly handsome Dane initiates Mariotte into exotic sensuality while their friendship deepens to love, a match for the fiery longing Mariotte senses and shares whenever Seti and she occupy the same room.
After Cedric’s investigation of a shocking Extranatural murder closer to home than the evidence suggests exposes them all to danger, the lovers must confront what Mariotte’s alliance really means. Is the exotic beauty suited to the deeper intimacies of vampire love, or will she remain happiest as the pampered mistress and companion to the Three Devils in Bath?
