Book Description
In Bride in Hiding, Susannah Kirk hopes to escape an unwanted marriage by posing as a lady's companion in the bridegroom's ancestral home. Trevor Dalton, one of her reclusive lady's grandsons, makes a surprise visit and Susannah worries he may be the very man she is trying to avoid. Trevor's attempts at averting a family scandal are hampered by Susannah at every turn. This ignites his curiosity and he becomes determined to uncover Susannah's secrets--even if he has to seduce them out of her. In Confessions of a Lady Ruined, Julia Bassett can't bear living in the home of the handsome lord who charmed her and then ruined her--especially while he searches for a wife! Julia will do anything to lose her position as his sister's chaperone, even if it means repeating the same scandalous behavior that separated them long ago. Colin Danforth enjoys seeing how far Julia will go, but he regrets breaking her heart and would like to win her back. But when attempts are made on his life, he must find out if this bold vixen is seeking love...or vengeance. In The Truth About Georgiana, Georgiana Hayward is betrothed by her family to a marquess many years her senior. Worse, his dashing nephew and outraged heir, Anthony Baxter, is the man she secretly desires. Anthony opposes the union due to decorum, panicked relatives, and especially Georgiana's kiss that has put a chink in his armor. When his attempts to dissuade this notorious hellion leave him frustrated, amused, and falling in love, he must decide whether to risk a scandal of his own and claim the heart of this wild vixen.
