A June Bride:
A hasty marriage to redeem her reputation was bad enough, but Alessandra’s punishment for an innocent moment in the park was not to end there. Only if she and her new husband Jeffrey Huntingsley managed to share sleeping quarters for a month, yet leave their marriage unconsummated, would Alessandra’s father agree to an annulment. A needlessly tedious exercise, Alessandro fumed, since it was a simple matter to remain at arm’s distance from a husband she scarcely knew. Although he was a most handsome and agreeable gentleman. And the nights did seem inexplicably colder, longer, and lonelier than ever before.
Observing the terms of the "annulment agreement" should have presented no difficulty for a gentleman Jeffrey Huntingsley. All it took was a scrupulous consideration for Alessandra’s sensibilities, a modicum of self control, and a few pillows dividing the marriage bed down the middle. If all else failed, a midnight card game or two ought to do the trick. But the sight of his bride, adorably attired in a modest nightgown, was distinctly unsettling. Alessandra was proving a decent sort, and Jeffrey would be a scoundrel indeed to take advantage of her innocence, despite the inviting warmth he was convinced he saw in her eyes.
The Misfit Marquess
Seeking to escape the cruel designs of a false lover, Elizabeth Hatton fled into the night. Then an accident left her unconscious–and she was rescued by the handsome Lord Gideon Grayleigh! Elizabeth’s reputation depended on secrecy, so she resolved to protect her identity–by pretending to be just a little daft…. — Lord Grayleigh wanted to help this sweet young lady, but she refused to tell him her name, or accept any more from him than the shelter of his home. And although it seemed she did not quite have all her senses about her, he suspected she was hiding a dark secret. Soon Elizabeth’s sweet banter and witty ways had made their way into his heart. He was determined to find out the cause of her troubles, and make their love real. But the villain who pursued her would not allow it–without a fight..
A Heart’s Treasure
Genevieve had been more than happy to escape the dreadful summer heat of London, and what better way than a journey north to Cumberland on a treasure hunt, along a path strewn with various clever clues designed to befuddle and bemuse? And ,surely such a merry jaunt as this was perfectly suited to romantic intrigue…if only her dashing traveling companion felt a similar stirring. Genevieve had long admired Xavier’s keen intellect and proud bearing, and now wondered whether this unusual journey might not bring about her own heart’s true desire…
A boyhood injury had left Xavier with a scarred visage–and an overwhelming need to remove himself as far from the curious stares of the ton as he could reasonably manage. Thus, he welcomed the opportunity to escape the dreaded London season by embarking on a treasure hunt. Wary of female wiles, however, Xavier was hard pressed not to question the kind words of his charming traveling partner, Genevieve. He had always valued her friendship, and her quiet beauty and gentle ways were a soothing tonic to his battered soul. Yet if he dared to reveal his true feelings, he risked losing the most passionate prize of all…
Haunted Hearts
For one fog-enshrouded evening, Olivia Beacham was, determined to break away from the confines of society and experience a taste of excitement and freedom. Her husband’s sudden death had left her in mourning for the last two years, but this All Hallow’s Eve masquerade held a promise of intrigue and mystery. Hidden behind a cat’s mask and a French accent, no one would guess the daring "Cat" was the reticent Viscountess Stratton. Under a cloak of darkness, she thrilled in anticipation to an evening that would lead to adventure and perhaps even love.
Raised in foreign lands and trained in the art of espionage, Ian Drake longed for a rest in a place he could call home. Thus he welcomed his return to England despite his new mission: to attend a masquerade and make contact with a French informer whose identity was unknown to him. When he heard the foreign accents of the masked "Cat," Ian thought his mission was accomplished. But, instead he found in his arms a mysterious woman whose emerald eyes and silver laugh promised a night of magic and perhaps something even more.
The Marriage Mart
Fiddlesticks, thought Lady Mary Wagnall. Finding a husband couldn’t be that difficult. She knew she was no great beauty, and at the ancient age of 28 she was prepared to settle for an older gentleman, one happy to settle down and start a family of his own. Yet, one glimpse of the incomparably handsome Duke of Rothayne put every practical plan to rout. Mary would be less than a woman if her heart remained unaffected by such a man, but more the fool for giving in to such folly!
Nothing intrigued the Duke of Rothayne more than a challenge, particularly where women were concerned. And Lady Mary Wagnall, with her quick-witted banter and forthright nature would certainly provide enough sport to alleviate his increasing sense of ennui. But as he helped to plot her course to matrimony, he began to wonder if it was to be his sworn bachelorhood which would succumb to her charming nature and lively smile!
