Iss Harlow's marriage in high life London, 1823
A handsome duke. His beautiful soon-to-be duchess. A whirlwind
courtship. It is this author's privilege to report on the event all
of London is talking about: the upcoming wedding of the Duke of
Hamilton and Brandon to the only daughter of the Duke of Richmond.
Every detail of the "Wedding of the Year" will be reported in these
pages as a London Weekly exclusive.
But I, Miss Sophie Harlow, must confess to a secret infatuation
with this "double duke" that can only lead to trouble. It is
impossible that this notoriously upstanding gentleman would ever
jilt his bride for a scandalous female newspaper writer. And yet .
. . the arrival of a foreign prince, the discovery of a shocking
secret, and one passionate kiss could change everything. Will this
perfect duke risk the scandal of the year to marry the woman his
heart desires?
He is notorious.
Lord Simon Roxbury is a godsend to gossip columnists everywhere.
This notorious rake has recently been caught in an extremely
compromising position by none other than The London Weekly's Lady
of Distinction. Rumor also has it that Lord R received an
ultimatum: be wed or be penniless.
She is scandalous.
As A Lady of Distinction, Lady Julianna Somerset typically
reports on other people's scandals, but soon she finds herself
embroiled in a very public battle with an irate Lord Roxbury--one
that leaves her reputation in tatters and her position at The
Weekly on the line.
Together they're... respectable?
With no other choice available, these two enemies unite in a
marriage of convenience to rescue both their reputations and secure
his fortune. With their rivals intent on revealing the charade,
Lady Julianna and Lord Simon inevitably surrender to temptation. It
may just be a love match after all . . .
In the first novel of Maya Rodale's stunning new series, an
American heiress must learn to navigate London society and an
infuriatingly irresistible rake ...Lord Darcy is the quintessential
Englishman: wealthy, titled, impossibly proper, and horrified that
a pack of Americans has inherited one of England's most respected
dukedoms. But his manners, his infamous self-restraint, and his
better judgment fly out the window when he finds himself with the
maddening American girl next door. Lady Bridget Cavendish has
grand-but thwarted-plans to become a Perfect Lady and take the
haute ton by storm. In her diary, Bridget records her disastrous
attempts to assimilate into London high society, her adoration of
the handsome rogue next door, her disdain for the Dreadful Lord
Darcy, and some truly scandalous secrets that could ruin them all.
It was loathing at first sight for Lady Bridget and Lord Darcy. But
their paths keep crossing ...and somehow involve kissing. When Lady
Bridget's diary goes missing, both Darcy and Bridget must decide
what matters most of all-a sterling reputation or a perfectly
imperfect love.
As society gathers at Kingstag Castle for the wedding of the year,
matrimony is in the air. But who will be the bride? With
swoonworthy lords, witty ladies, eccentric relatives, and a gaggle
of free-spirited girls-not to mention the world's best high perch
phaeton-it's a recipe for mayhem ... and romance. Award winning,
best-selling authors Katharine Ashe, Caroline Linden, Miranda
Neville and Maya Rodale serve up delectable Regency fun and a sexy
contemporary twist in this anthology of original novellas. Four
authors, four couples, four deliciously romantic surprises. When it
comes to love, anything can happen... That Rogue Jack by Maya
Rodale Jack, Lord Willoughby is charming, handsome, and utterly
irresponsible. In other words, he's the worst person to entrust
with the ducal wedding ring. Miss Henrietta Black is prim, proper
and the ideal person to help find the priceless family heirloom
that's gone missing ... as long as she isn't distracted by Jack's
gorgeous smile and tantalizing attempts at seduction. They must
find the ring before the wedding ... if they aren't too busy
falling in love. PS. I Love You by Miranda Neville Handsome,
inarticulate Frank Newnham asks for his cousin Christian's help
when he woos Rosanne Lacy by letter. Rosanne falls for Frank's
delicious prose, but when they meet in person at the duke's wedding
party, Rosanne can't understand why Frank seems so ... dull. And
why is she drawn to the dark brooding Earl of Bruton, with his
scarred face and air of melancholy? When I Met My Duchess by
Caroline Linden Gareth Cavendish, Duke of Wessex, believes he's
chosen the perfect bride ... until he meets her sister and
lightning strikes-literally Now he's the only member of society
dreading the wedding of the season. Or is he? Cleo Barrows can't
fathom why her knees weaken every time the handsome duke
approaches, or why her sister isn't in the clouds at the prospect
of marrying him. But the more often wedding plans throw Cleo and
Gareth intimately together, the faster time is running out to turn
the celebration of the summer into the scandal of the year. How
Angela Got Her Rogue Back by Katharine Ashe When gorgeous Lord
Trenton Ascot beckons to history grad student Angela Cowdrey from
the pages of a comic book, she thinks she's going crazy. When Trent
rescues her from a lake and she claims she's from the future, he
knows he is. But a blackmailer is threatening Trent's family and
Angela is determined to help. While unraveling the mystery of her
time-travel trip to the duke's wedding, this modern girl and
Regency lord just might discover a passion that defies centuries.
