A native and current resident of Southern California, Suzanne Enoch loves movies almost as much as she loves books. When she is not busily working on her next novel, Suzanne likes to contemplate interesting phenomena, like how the three guppies in her aquarium became 161 guppies in five months.

In 2 connected novellas, Suzanne Enoch will captivate her historical readers with a sparkling romance and mystery set in Regency England, then catapult them to contemporary times where billionaire Richard Addison and reformed thief Samantha Jellicoe will solve the case.

Two unforgettable tales. One dazzling diamond!

Summer 1814 . . .

When Evangeline Munroe inherits the exquisite but supposedly cursed Nightshade Diamond, she considers it a bit of good fortune. Then she literally runs into Connoll Addison, Marquis of Rawley, the most sought after bachelor amongst the ton. Surely her immediate attraction to the rogue is bad luck. Could the diamond be more dangerous than she ever imagined?

Present . . .

Samantha Jellicoe thinks it's good luck that has her-a reformed cat burglar-providing security for a museum exhibit. Then she discovers the Nightshade Diamond, with an accompanying note that says the thing is cursed. Cursed indeed! How else to explain Scotland Yard breathing down her neck, the appearance of an ex-boyfriend, and her lover Rick Addison suddenly testing the boundaries of their relationship? She needs to unload the gem and soon, or shemay lose her dreams forever.
