SOME LIKE IT WICKED/SOME LIKE TO SHOCK Carole Mortimer

Two vintage Carole Mortimer romances in one volume. In *Some Like It Wicked*, a woman finds herself drawn to a man with a dangerous reputation — the kind her sensible side knows to avoid. In *Some Like to Shock*, a spirited heroine decides to shed her good-girl image and pursue exactly what she wants, consequences be damned. Mortimer writes classic 1980s-90s romantic tension: sharp banter, smoldering glances, heroes who brood and heroines who refuse to be tamed. These aren't slow burns — they're quick strikes of chemistry wrapped in period manners and high society drama. Perfect for readers who want their romance unapologetically bold, their heroes alpha without apology, and their happy endings earned through proper sparring. A double dose of Mortimer's signature style: passionate, escapist, and entirely shameless about what it delivers.
