    About this ebook

    Revenge is sweet until it breaks your heart.

    Falsely accused of stealing, Faith is given two choices: Fend for herself on the streets of London, or become indentured to Madame Chambon, the ruthless proprietor of London's most exclusive brothel.

    In order to survive, Faith submits to the machinations of a mysterious benefactress and begins a new life under Madame Chambon’s roof. However, she does not live like the other girls.

    Rather, she's taught the theory of how to entrance London’s noble gentlemen with her learning in philosophy, politics and art.

    Her body is to be saved for the greatest enticement of all: revenge.

    Faith doesn’t care what she has to do. She lives only to fulfil a bargain that will set her free.

    But when Faith is recruited as the muse of a talented, sensitive painter whose victory in a prestigious art competition turns them both into celebrities overnight, she discovers the reasons behind her mission are very different from what she'd been led to believe.

    Now she is complicit in something dark and dangerous while riches, adulation and freedom are hers for the taking.

    But what value are these if her heart has become a slave to the honorable man she is required to destroy?

    Keeping Faith is book 3 in the Fair Cyprians of London series but can be read as a stand-alone.

    Here's what the readers say:

    "A well-written story with realistic characters. The plot is engaging with plenty of twists and turns. It really pulls you into the book quickly and completely."

    "Thank you for completely following this story through all of the twists and turns until it reached its natural conclusion."

    "Engaging and charming with involved plot and romance which is to be savored as are all of this writer's works in my view."

    A heartfelt, sizzling Victorian romance with a note of redemption that'll please even the cynics.

    Beverley Oakley

    Beverley Oakley was seventeen when she bundled up her first her 500+ page romance and sent it to a publisher. Unfortunately drowning her heroine on the last page was apparently not in line with the expectations of romance readers so Beverley became a journalist. Twenty-six years later Beverley was delighted to receive her first publishing contract from Robert Hale (UK) for a romance in which she ensured her heroine was saved from drowning in the icy North Sea. Since 2009 Beverley has written more than thirteen historical romances, mostly set in England during the early nineteenth century. Mystery, intrigue and adventure spill from their pages and if she can pull off a thrilling race to save someone’s honour – or a worthy damsel from the noose – it’s time to celebrate with a good single malt Scotch. Beverley lives with her husband, two daughters and a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy the size of a pony opposite a picturesque nineteenth century lunatic asylum. She also writes Africa-set adventure-filled romances tarring handsome bush pilot heroes, and historical romances with less steam and more sexual tension, as Beverley Eikli.
