Description
The Villain (Villain Duology, Book 1)
A Dark Regency Erotic Romance set amid the untamed beauty and danger of the Scottish Highlands...
A Heartless Villain
Lady Daphne Fairchild journeys alone from the safety of London's ballrooms to the ruthless wilds of Scotland, determined to confront the notorious Earl of Hartmoor—the sinister man who has methodically destroyed the men in her family. But the answers she seeks come at a steep, shocking price.
An Indecent Proposal
Thirty nights in the Earl's bed—that's the wicked bargain Daphne must strike to uncover the truth behind his vendetta. Yet, as darkness and desire blur into an irresistible haze, Daphne realizes the truth may be far darker than she ever imagined, and the cost far greater than she ever intended to pay.
A Cruel Desire
Bound by revenge, betrayal, and a desire that burns hotter than hatred itself, Daphne finds herself trapped. Even as the Earl uses her to exact his vengeance, she can't deny the dangerous pull between them—one that threatens to unravel her completely. With her heart and soul on the line, Daphne must decide if the man who holds her captive will ultimately be her ruin or her salvation.
Warning: The Villain features a morally ambiguous anti-hero and contains explicit scenes intended for mature, adventurous readers. Dare to enter at your own risk.

5By Daytona ChristianSigh, Earl Hartmoor. This book sucked me in from the beginning. A great story line & when the truth is revealed, I was tearing. Lady Daphne was more warrior then princess. So glad. That bad boy , Adam , was well written. I kept looking at cover to sigh. His long hair. .. Lol. I just finished the series & can’t wait to read again. I have 7 of her books. All sexy romps. Keep on writing, Val. You got a fan new here! Loved all characters. This is my first book review, hope it helps. Just read this series!What a great read
5By RBSugarI so enjoyed this book very much. Victoria Vale writes great stories.Loved it!
5By GallowaygirlyLoved this book. It is a great story based on the revenge Adam takes to destroy the men who destroyed his step-sister. Daphne goes to Adam to demand he explain his actions. Adam in response states he will tell her over a period of 30 days/nights where he will have complete control over her body and he will give her 30,000 dollars and she agrees because it will help her family’s financial crisis. Once Daphne learns the reason she loses sll respect for her brother, fsther and uncle. The book is full of erotic encounters between them with Adam taking her virginity. This book is a great read and can’t wait for the next book which is the conclusion of Adam and Daphne’s story. Hopefully there is a HEA.Loved this book!!!

I just finished reading “Hart”, and I am on pins and needles waiting for the completion of the series!Beautiful!!
5By LatrinajMasterful, well written, great story line. I love Ms. Vale's edgy storylines, dominate and submissive characters and style of writing. This is one of my favorites. I finished it in six hours, I could't put it down.
