Their marriage lasted only slightly longer than the honeymoon—to no one’s surprise, not even Bryony Asquith’s. A man as talented, handsome, and sought after by society as Leo Marsden couldn't possibly want to spend his entire life with a woman who rebelled against propriety by becoming a doctor. Why, then, three years after their annulment and half a world away, does he track her down at her clinic in the remotest corner of India?
Leo has no reason to think Bryony could ever forgive him for the way he treated her, but he won’t rest until he’s delivered an urgent message from her sister—and fulfilled his duty by escorting her safely back to England. But as they risk their lives for each other on the journey home, will the biggest danger be the treacherous war around them—or their rekindling passion?

"Sherry Thomas is the most powerfully original historical romance author writing today. She is a rebel, a rule-breaker, and above all, a romantic. Searing, tender and filled with passion, her writing is nothing short of a revelation."
—Lisa Kleypas, New York Times bestselling author

"Scrumptious Victorian confection... A Cinderella story with a compelling culinary twist."
—Publishers Weekly

"Thomas' latest romance is delicious, delectable and a mouth-watering blend of Cinderella, Top Chef and Like Water for Chocolate, not to mention Chocolat. She dazzles with her intelligent, compelling story and memorable characters. This well-crafted romance places her among the very finest of the next generation of authors."

Famous in Paris, infamous in London, Verity Durant is as well-known for her mouthwatering cuisine as for her scandalous love life. But that’s the least of the surprises awaiting her new employer when he arrives at the estate of Fairleigh Park following the unexpected death of his brother.
To rising political star Stuart Somerset, Verity Durant is just a name and food is just food, until her first dish touches his lips. Only one other time had he felt such pure arousal—a dangerous night of passion with a stranger, who disappeared at dawn. Ten years is a long time to wait for the main course, but when Verity Durant arrives at his table, there's only one thing that will satisfy Stuart’s appetite for more. But is his hunger for lust, revenge—or that rarest of delicacies, love? For Verity’s past has a secret that could devour them both even as they reach for the most delicious fruit of all...

Love has designs of its own...
To all of London society, Lord and Lady Tremaine had the ideal arrangement: a marriage based on civility, courteousness, and freedom—by all accounts, a perfect marriage. The reason? For the last ten years, husband and wife have resided on separate continents.
But once upon a time, things were quite different for the Tremaines...
When Gigi Rowland first laid eyes on Camden Saybrook, the attraction was immediate and overwhelming. But what began in a spark of passion ended in betrayal the morning after their wedding—and now Gigi wants to be free to marry again. When Camden returns from America with an outrageous demand in exchange for her freedom, Gigi’s decision will have consequences she never imagined, as secrets are exposed, desire is rekindled—and one of London’s most admired couples must either fall in love all over again...or let each other go forever.

About me:

Hi, my name is Sherry Thomas and I write historical romances. Very good ones, I hope, as it would be rather awful to spend the best years of my life churning out mediocre books. :-)
I am a skeptic about love. And no, I don't think that is a strange attitude to have for someone who writes love stories. After all, it is a lot to ask readers to believe in a few hundred page that two strangers they'd never met before would gladly stick with each other through thick and thin for the rest of their lives. So I ask a lot from the book I write. They must convince me not only that Love is possible, but that love for this particular pair will be faithful, joyful, and lasting.
So far, it seems to have worked. My debut book, Private Arrangements, which came out in April of 2008, has been exceptionally well-received—starred reviews in Publishers Weekly and Library Journal, a Desert Isle Keeper review from All About Romance, and a five-star review from The Romance Reader, among many others. And it will be translated into Russian, German, Spanish, French, Slovene,Turkish, Japanese and Indonesian. Delicious will be translated into Japanese,Russian, Spanish, German, Turkish and Slovene. Not Quite a Husband will be translated into German and Thai.
My sophomore book, Delicious, which released on July 29 last year, was a Featured Top Pick by Romantic Times for August of 2008, and has Publishers Weekly gushing that it is "compelling," "scrumptious," and "impossible to resist."
Both Private Arrangements and Delicious have been selected by Doubleday and Rhapsody Book Club as featured alternates. And Recorded Books will produce both as audio books.
If you enjoy historical romances, or just good stories well told, I hope you give my books a try. I like them—and I'm just about the most demanding reader there is. :-)
