Forever a Lady
(The Rumor, #2)
by Delilah Marvelle
July 24th 2012 by HQN Books
Rumor has it we are closer to the truth…
Two different classes, One common desire…
Bernadette Marie Burton may be the richest widow in England, but like her dreams of finding true passion, her reputation is deteriorating. Cruel gossip, loneliness and hoards of opportunistic suitors have her believing Society couldn’t be more vile….or dangerous. So when an attacker threatens her life, she finds safety in the most unseemly of places: the arms of a mysterious, Irish-American gang leader.
His fortune stolen, young Matthew Joseph Milton is done playing the respectable gentleman. In the slums of New York, only ruffians thrive. But from the moment he arrives in London and encounters the volumptious Lady Bernadette, he can’t help but wonder about the finer pleasures he’s missing. Or just how much he’s willing to risk — not only to bed her, but to prove his worth…
Delilah Marvelle spent her youth studying various languages, reading voraciously and playing the pianoforte. She confesses that here ends the extent of her gentle breeding. She was a naughty child who was forever torturing her parents with countless adventures that they did not deem respectable. Confined to her room on many occasions due to these misadventures, she discovered the quill and its amazing power. Soon, to the dismay of her parents, she rather enjoyed being confined to her room and finished writing her first historical romance (which was a heart-stopping 800 pages long…) at the age of fourteen. She is a two time Golden Heart finalist and the winner of The Reviewer’s Choice Award for Best Sensual HIstorical Romance of the Year. You can visit her at her website at www.DelilahMarvelle.com or her blog, which explores the naughtier side of history, at www.DelilahMarvelle.blogspot.com.
You can also find Delilah on Facebook, Twitter and Goodreads

Hi Delilah!
I hope you’re having fun on your tour but after so many stops I’m sure at times it probably seems like it’s going on forever!
I’m sure that you often hear fans like me tell you how much we love your books but we may not mention that there are times between releases that seem to take forever! Waiting is made easier by learning the Gossip so all is forgiven.
It seems like a dream but if my lucky genie is making the pick and I win I would love for you to bring your husband along to have a little chat with my husband to explain why reading your books is to his advantage in the end!
Most of all I will be forever grateful to my parents and my teachers for teaching me to read because reading not only lets you learn it lets you dream!

What a great giveaway!
I had to think about this forever business. …..
I’ll be forever content with who I am and what I have–no matter what the world tells me.

Forever about Family – everything else is expendable.

I love Delilah’s books! Everything I have read from her has been so great, and I love that she has such a unique voice, her books differ from any other historical I have ever read. Since first reading the Scandal series, I have been a fan.
