My friend Leigh Kramer alerted me to this entire Brothers Sinister series–four full length, three novellas–in a box set. She says Milan is one of the best histrom authors in the business.

Violet is more than the emotionless Countess and Sebastian the mindless rake they present to the world. They’ve been friends for years…and Sebastian has secretly been in love with her all that time. He’s also been presenting Violet’s scientific discoveries as his own—at her request—since society won’t recognize women in the field. She would rather have her knowledge out in the world, even if it won’t be attributed to her. But Sebastian wants to end their arrangement and Violet can’t have that, even if it means she’ll have to risk her heart. This is the third book in the Brothers Sinister series but it stands fine on its own. Note: Violet experienced infertility and miscarriages during her abusive marriage; exercise caution as needed. (This is open door.)

MMD team member Leigh says: "If you've read Trade Me, pick up this follow-up short story set during Chinese New Year! (You definitely need to read Trade Me first.) I enjoyed seeing how Blake and Tina are doing and watching their parents meet for the first time. The verbal sparring and repurposed Princess Bride quotes between the parents was the best!
