Book Description
Two brothers, two novellas, all in one place. AN UNINTENDED JOURNEY Abby Goddard’s life is going along just swimmingly, apart from the disappearance of her life’s love—Wesley Cavendish, a man well above her station. Just before Christmas, Grandmama dies after revealing the identity of Abby’s grandfather. The Duke of Danby, no less. Now the entire family will travel to Yorkshire to confront Danby, hoping to gain a dowry for Abby. But then Wesley reemerges, sparking a hope Abby thought long destroyed. Shall the prodigal son’s sole inheritance be an unsightly gash? Wesley Cavendish aspires to the political realm, despite his father’s near-murderous opposition…not to mention his opposition to Abby Goddard. But since Father died, will the new Earl of Fordingham rescind Father’s disgraceful allegations? Fordingham thwarts Wesley at every turn, threatening marriage to a prominent Tory family—which precludes Abby—to put an end to Wesley’s Whig involvement…unless Wesley can find a loophole. TO ENCHANT AN ICY EARL As the Earl of Fordingham, Tristan Cavendish has lived by the code his father beat into him for so long he’s driven everyone in his life away, including his brother. Now he is alone. Loneliness dictates he must change, so he sets out to make amends with his only sibling. Alas, his brother seems none too inclined to hear him out, and a woman who must be a vision from Fordingham’s dreams walks into his path. Now, more than ever before, he knows he must change his ways or risk driving her away as well…but how? Calista Bartlett is on the hunt for a husband—but one who is nothing at all like the betrayer who was her former beau. When she sees the Earl of Fordingham across the room at a soiree, she knows she’s found the very man who is everything her one-time beau was not. Fordingham presents an icy façade to the world, but Calista discovers a passionate man who kisses her feverishly and warms her through to the bones. Can she ever convince him to let down his guard permanently? Key words: regency, regency romance, historical romance, short story, novella, earl, aristocrat, humorous, Christmas

Book Description
As the Earl of Blackmore, Lucas Devalle is no stranger to the scandals propagated by Society's elite, particularly since more than a few of those scandals have come about due to the Devalle family's affairs. As such, it comes as no surprise when a young lady in search of a scandal attempts to entrap him at the ball he's giving to honor his brother's betrothal. He is surprised when second young lady intervenes in the name of freeing him from an undesirable fate. Why would anyone feel the need to safeguard his name when he is one of the devilish Devalles? When she escaped into the gardens at Lord Blackmore's ball, Miss Julianna Selwyn's intentions had merely been to escape from an elderly, marriage-minded marquess's unwanted advances. She never planned to eavesdrop on her host. But no matter how wicked Lord Blackmore is purported to be, he doesn't deserve to be forced into the parson's mousetrap when he's done nothing wrong. Had Julianna not overheard every sordid detail of a young lady's plan to ensnare the earl, however, she might have avoided initiating her own scandalous to-do. With his curiosity piqued, Luke does what any reasonable man, rogue or not, would do--he seeks out an introduction to his charming liberator. Upon uncovering Julianna's dilemma, he's determined to return the favor as only he can: he makes certain his rescuer gets more than just A Dance with the Devil.
