Sofie Darling’s Shadows and Silk series is set during the Regency period and mixes historical romance with espionage and adventure. The books take place in London and Paris, where lords and ladies cross paths with spies and thieves. The first novel, Three Lessons in Seduction, opens with a memorable premise: the heroine discovers her husband has been working as a spy. Each subsequent book introduces a new couple while maintaining connections to the larger cast.
Darling is a USA Today bestselling author, and the third book in the series, Her Midnight Sin, won the 2020 RONE award for Best Historical Regency. The series ran from 2018 to 2022, with eight books total. Titles like Tempted by the Viscount, To Win a Wicked Lord, and At the Pleasure of the Marquess give a clear sense of the tone: classic Regency settings combined with sensual romance and enough plot tension to keep pages turning.
