    About this series

    A desperate wallflower . . .

    As the fourth daughter of a baron, Miss Hannah Fairchild has no dreams of grandeur when it comes to marriage. Forget a duke or an earl. The shy, spinsterly wallflower would be happy with a doctor or (even better) the bookseller's son. Unfortunately, if she wants to save her family from financial ruin-and her father from debtor's prison-a duke is precisely what she needs.

    A disfigured duke . . .

    Severely injured from a fall as a young child, the Duke of Wycliffe has spent much of his adult life in bitter seclusion. Withdrawn from the outside world and everyone in it who mocked him for his physical disfigurement, Evan fully intends to spend the rest of his days in isolation at Wycliffe Manor. Until a stammering, gray-eyed bookmouse arrives on his doorstep and proposes marriage.

    An unexpected proposal . . .

    To Hannah's disbelief, the Duke of Wycliffe actually agrees to her ridiculous proposal-under one condition. Their marriage, such as it is, will be in name only. But there are no guarantees when two lonely, vulnerable hearts are involved . . . and soon Hannah and Evan find themselves doing the one thing they promised they wouldn't. Falling in love.

    Contains mature themes.

      Their wedding was the event of the season . . . . A shy wallflower, Caroline hasn't the faintest idea why the Duke of Readington chose her to be his bride. She could ask, but that would mean speaking to him . . . and truth be told, she'd rather have a conversation with the devil. Her new husband may be one of the most powerful men in all of England-not to mention the handsomest-but he's also cruel, callous, and has a heart colder than ice. But it was never meant to be a love match . . . Eric married Caroline for one simple reason: he wasn't in love with her. Having seen firsthand how love can bring a man to his knees, he's determined not to make the same mistakes his father did. Which is why he's going to spend just enough time with his new bride to assure himself of an heir before he leaves her and returns to London. At least that was the plan until a winter storm leaves them stranded. Now every time Eric turns around he finds himself stumbling over the wife he never wanted . . . but is slowly beginning to desire. . . . or was it? As cold winds howl outside the manor, inside of it a duke's heart is finally starting to melt as he finds himself falling for the one woman he was never supposed to love . . . but can she love him in return? Contains mature themes.

      A WALLFLOWER WHO DIDN'T WANT TO BE A DUCHESS . . . An eccentric bluestocking with an affinity for hedgehogs, Eleanor Ward never had any dreams of grandeur when it came to making a good match. Perfectly content to become a spinster, she already had her cottage in the country picked out, complete with a barn for her menagerie of rescued animals. Until one night a lost hairpin and an arrogant duke ruin everything. Now she's the Duchess of Hawkridge, the last thing in the world she ever wanted to be. And her husband? Well, he's nowhere to be found. A DUKE WHO DIDN'T WANT TO BE A HUSBAND . . . Furious at being tricked into marrying a woman who keeps a hedgehog in her pocket, Derek couldn't get away from Eleanor fast enough after their vows were read. It's been a year since he's seen her, and he has no plans to change that anytime soon. Until his scheming cousin shows up and declares the union a sham. Now Derek has exactly one month to woo a wife he never desired and consummate a marriage he never wanted. A MEANS TO AN END . . . OR A NEW BEGINNING? It seems like a simple enough task, especially for a man whose romantic conquests are the stuff of legends. But nothing is simple when two stubborn hearts are involved, especially when Derek begins to see Eleanor in an entirely new light. With time ticking down, can a cynical duke convince his unconventional duchess their marriage is worth saving? This spring, only one thing is certain . . . love is definitely in the air. Contains mature themes.
