USA Today bestseller Lenora Bell returns with
a Grease-inspired rom-com about an innocent lady who clashes
with a sexy rake, the first book in a brand-new series sure to
delight fans of Sarah MacLean, Tessa Dare, and Julia Quinn. Raised
by an overprotective mother, bookish romantic Sandrine Oliver
craves adventure, but nothing exciting ever happens in her sleepy
seaside village. Until a handsome, mysterious stranger arrives and
sweeps her off her feet…only to leave suddenly with no
explanation. Lord Dane Walker, brother to the Duke of
Rydell, is infamous for racing fast carriages and breaking hearts.
But when his brother is mortally injured, Dane inherits the
responsibilities of the dukedom—duties that come with a dangerous
secret which threatens everyone close to him. In London,
Sandrine is astonished to learn that the charming, honorable man
she met at the beach is really a disreputable rake. And the
infuriating nobleman acts as though he barely knows her. Who needs
a wild rake? Certainly not Sandrine! With a little help from her
friends, she transforms into a glamorous belle. She’s out to make
Dane pay…but can she stop her traitorous heart from longing to
surrender only to him?Â
Once upon a time in Mayfair a group of wallflowers formed a secret
society with goals that had absolutely nothing to do with
matrimony. Their most troublesome obstacle? Rogues! They call her
Beastly Beatrice. Wallflower Lady Beatrice Bentley longs to remain
in the wilds of Cornwall to complete her etymological dictionary.
Too bad her brother's Gothic mansion is under renovation. How can
she work with an annoyingly arrogant and too-handsome rogue
swinging a hammer nearby? Rogue. Scoundrel. Call him anything you
like as long as you pay him. Navy man Stamford Wright is leaving
England soon and renovating Thornhill House is just a job. It's not
about the duke's bookish sister or her fiery copper hair. Or the
etymology lessons the prim-yet-alluring lady insists on giving him.
Or the forbidden things he'd love to teach her. They say never mix
business with pleasure. But when Beatrice and Ford aren't arguing,
they're kissing. Sometimes temptation proves too strong to
resist...even if the cost is a heart.
Have you heard? The future Duke of Barrington has just been gambled
away by his father. To an heiress! The delicious details thus
far...Nicolas, Lord Hatherly, never intended to marry-nor add to
the "mad" Hatherly line-but now he must honor his father's debt to
a social-climbing merchant or lose the family estate. A notoriously
wild marquess, won by her father at a game of cards, is the very
last thing Miss Alice Tombs wants. She's spent the last three
seasons repelling suitors in spectacular fashion so she'd be at
liberty to explore the world. She'll just have to drive this one
away as well. Until Nick proposes an utterly tempting arrangement:
one summer together to prove the legitimacy of their union, then
Alice is free to travel while Nick revels in the time he has left
before the Hatherly Madness takes hold. It will be easy to walk
away after a few months of make-believe wedded bliss-won't it?
Alice and Nick are about to find out...one sultry night at a time.
This ought to be fun ...An Avon Romance

The pleasure of your company is requested at Warbury Park. Four
lovely ladies will arrive...but only one can become a duchess.
James, the scandalously uncivilized Duke of Harland, requires a
bride with a spotless reputation for a strictly business
arrangement. Lust is prohibited and love is out of the question.
Four ladies. Three days. What could go wrong? She is not like the
others...Charlene Beckett, the unacknowledged daughter of an earl
and a courtesan, has just been offered a life-altering fortune to
pose as her half-sister, Lady Dorothea, and win the duke's
proposal. All she must do is: * Be the perfect English rose [Ha!] *
Breathe, smile, and curtsy in impossibly tight gowns [blast Lady
Dorothea's sylph-like figure] * Charm and seduce a wild duke
[without appearing to try] * Keep said duke far, far from her heart
[no matter how tempting] When secrets are revealed and passion
overwhelms, James must decide if the last lady he should want is
really everything he needs. And Charlene must decide if the promise
of a new life is worth risking everything ...including her heart.

. . . a group of wallflowers formed a secret society with goals
that had absolutely nothing to do with matrimony. Their most
troublesome obstacle? Rogues! Lady Henrietta Prince is far too busy
for romance. She's dedicated her life to turning her family
vineyards into a profitable wine venture. But when she shares a
kiss at midnight with a handsome stranger, she's captivated...
until he claims to be the distant heir to her father's earldom. Ash
Ellis is a gambler who lives life on the edge. Now he's locked his
sights on a glittering prize and nothing will stand in his way.
When Henrietta is forced to marry the wickedly seductive scoundrel
to keep her beloved vineyards, she vows that Ash will never have
her trust, or her love. Even if his kisses are more intoxicating
than the finest of wines. His new bride is certainly beautiful, but
biddable? Not so much. Ash will settle for nothing less than
Henrietta's total surrender... but is he the one in danger of
losing his heart? Praise for Lenora Bell: 'Love is a Rogue is a
