The Ruttingdon Collection by Louise Taylor
The Ruttingdon Series
Set in Victorian England, the Ruttingdon Club is an exclusive group of titled noblemen who enjoy inflicting pain while taking their pleasure.
The Incorrigible Annabelle Spencer
Annabelle Spencer was a bit of a tomboy, having grown up with six rowdy brothers. One day her reckless behaviour lands her on the wrong train without a chaperone where she meets a handsome stranger who introduces her to a world far outside the realm of her experience. Will the Duke turn her into his perfect submissive? Or will she flee from his lascivious–but oh so welcome–attentions?
Annabelle’s Awakening
Annabelle will soon become the Duchess of Rothmuir, but it isn’t the beautiful gown or opulent ball that sets her heart on fire. All she wants is to be naked in the arms of her love; Daniel, the Duke of Rothmuir, once more. Can she and Daniel build a life together that balances duty to their roles in society with their desire for dark sexual pleasure?
Having Faith
Faith Halstead, governess to a middle-class family with a marriageable son, out he is a cad after it is too late. Now she is alone in the world, a fallen woman, facing a bleak and uncertain future.
The Duke of Buckingham is in search of a woman to serve as his slave at an upcoming Ruttingdon Club house party, and this shy, modest young woman has unaccountably captured his attention. Will his dark and brutal desires and the oftentimes sweet pain he inflicts upon her ripe body drive her away, or will the awakening desires in her heart seduce her into staying longer with him–perhaps forever?
Keeping Faith
Frightened by the Duke’s lascivious and deviant attentions, Faith runs from him. Only, he made her feel more alive than ever, and she soon comes to regret her decision. She changes her mind and returns to extend her contract with him. She is now his property until the end of Ruttingdon Club's licentious house party at the duke's country home.
Can the duke overcome a lifetime's strict adherence to his own sense of honour and the rules of the Club? Or will Faith be left to the mercy of another, crueller master?
Do as the Doctor Orders
Lady Cassandra Martinbury has a big problem-her spendthrift father has bankrupted their earldom and left the two of them nearly penniless. The only way to save what is left of the family estate is for her to marry a man of means, but she draws the line at being forced to submit to the vicious Marquess of Radcliffe, her only suitor. Feigning illness to avoid wedding Radcliffe, Cassandra comes under the care of Dr. Henry Sutherland, a Ruttingdon Club member, and specialist in the treatment of female hysteria. He can tell immediately that she is faking her symptoms, but the thought of a week with the beautiful woman at his private sanatorium is just too tempting to resist. But Cassandra needs a husband, not a week at a remote spa where there are few people at all to be found, let alone any unattached men of good breeding. Her repeated attempts to escape find her over the handsome doctor's knee three times before she realizes that the man to save her and her father might just be right in front of her!
