What to expect

#1 New York Times bestselling author of the beloved Cynster novels, Stephanie Laurens takes you on a fresh journey with the Adventurers Quartet, a daring Regency-era adventure laced with mystery, tropical heat and passionate romance.

He has something to prove

Captain Caleb Frobisher, hedonistic youngest son of a seafaring dynasty, wants to be taken seriously. Seizing the next leg of the covert mission his brothers are pursuing, he acts decisively and effectively in securing the mission’s objectives. But responsibility has taken root, and he remains in the jungle to ensure the mission’s ultimate goal.

She will risk everything

Katherine Fortescue fled a life of poverty and came to Freetown as a governess, only to be kidnapped and forced to oversee the child workforce at a mine. Guarded by well-armed, well-trained mercenaries, the captives have lost all hope of escape. Then Katherine meets a handsome man—a captain—and he brings the sweet promise of rescue.

Together they will face the future

The sadistic mercenary who runs the mine has other plans, but Caleb’s true strength lies in extracting advantage from adversity, and through the clashes that follow, he becomes the leader he was always destined to be. The sort of man Katherine can trust—with her body, with her life, and with her love.

Race with the Adventurers Quartet as these passionate daredevils lead the way to the stunning and dramatic conclusion.

Critics Review

“Adventure addicts adore Laurens’ quartet focusing on four brothers who must each complete a piece of a puzzle before the mystery can be solved. The third installment is as intrigue-ridden and passionate as the others. A must-read.”

RT Book Reviews (4 stars)

“Love, lust, and action in the lush jungles of West Africa…Laurens’ rich characterization and well-thought-out plot make for a captivating adventure romance and provide elements of danger and surprise throughout the story. The vivid narrative, combined with quick cuts from scene to scene, make for an engrossing read with an ending poised to continue the adventure with yet another Frobisher brother.”

Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“An adventure-filled entry in a solid historical romance series.”

Kirkus Reviews

“The vividly etched West African jungle setting gives a refreshing twist to Laurens’ latest Regency-set historical romance.”

Booklist

“Narrator Steve West continues the adventures of the Frobisher brothers as they solve the mystery of missing British citizens in this historical romance…West masters the voices of the different characters, particularly the menace of the sadistic mercenary. Listeners can feel the building tension as the captives desperately await rescue. While one does not have to be familiar with the prior two books to enjoy West’s narration, everyone will certainly be looking forward to the conclusion of the adventure.”
