From New York Times bestselling author of the Wicked Worthingtons comes a fun and adventurous historical romp…


A Liar Under the Mistletoe is Book 1 of the Vauxhall Vixens trilogy that includes favorite characters from the Liar’s Club series! (Complete & Uncut Edition)

The three daughters of traitor Jackham the Fox, who were raised to continue the family business (jewelry theft!), are still in hiding from the dangerous Liar’s Club, a group of spies who were betrayed by Jackham. Passions run high in the holiday season when the Liars and the Vixens clash, conquer and fall in love!

Eldest Amie Jackham feels a heavy burden of responsibility for the survival of her sisters, practical Emma and enthusiastic Ruby. Trained by their lost father to fend for herself in London’s perilous underworld, Amie uses her father’s records to choose wicked people to rob. Emma plans the jobs and Ruby takes care of costumes.

Lord Elliot Hughes (whom we met in One Night With A Spy ‐ Royal Four, Book 3) is using the robberies by the mysterious new thief, known as the Vixen, to cover his own investigations into the wealthy and wicked. But when a lovely young woman stumbles across him cracking a safe, what can a dashing fellow do but ask her to dance? His superiors in the Liar’s Club may not like it, but Elliot can’t stop thinking of his nameless flame-haired bandit!

Amie is profoundly attracted to her handsome thief! However, when she realizes he is one of the dangerous spies who destroyed her father, she desperately fears for her sisters. There’s no point in worrying about her own heart, because it’s already broken.

(Please note: This story was briefly released in a holiday anthology – Dashing All the Way – in 2017. However, this book is the Complete & Uncut Edition)

“Brilliant. This story is hilarious and made me laugh a couple times. I especially like how Annie and Elliot go toe to toe. Each has something to lose and so much to gain. I love the way that it is written but also the way it made me feel after I’d finished it.” — Margriet H – Bookseller

“5 stars! I’m really hoping we get the continued story of Amie and Elliot as well as storyline of her sisters – and soon. Loved all of it and want more!!” — JRD – Amazon Reviewer

Under the covers…

In 2017 I was invited to join some wonderful, very experienced indie authors in a holiday historical anthology titled Dashing All The Way. It was an amazing experience to work with Elizabeth Essex, Heather Snow and Eva Devon. The ongoing theme? A female jewel thief was raiding the lockboxes of London at Christmastime! It was something I’d never seen before, an adventure-based Regency Christmas theme, so I was immediately hooked. I dusted off an idea I’d had a long time past, of the three secret daughters of Jackham, from the Liar’s Club series.

I really miss my Liars!

We all agreed that after the holiday release ran its course, we would take our stories back and do with them as we pleased. For two years, A Liar Under The Mistletoe sat untended while I finished other projects. When I dusted it off and filled it with all the scenes I’d not been able add at the time, I decided to really make it my own and do my own cover artwork as well! I hope everyone enjoys the adventure of Amie and Elliot, and comes back to visit in Book 2 & 3, when the other two sisters, Emma and Ruby find their soul-mates too!

I had long been thinking about continuing the story of one of my favorite secondary characters from the Royal Four series. Lord Elliot Hughes is eager to serve the Crown. Intelligent and sarcastic, I love how he carries his own “younger son of a younger son” uselessness into an asset for the Liar’s Club ring of spies. As for Amie Jackham, I’ve been wanting to expand on the story of the Liar’s Club traitor, Jackham, because I never really believed his story about selling out his comrades for money. I knew he had a better reason hidden somewhere in his past! So he did, three beautiful daughters, all trained in the family business–jewel theft!
