    A Betrothed for the Guarded Duke:A Historical Regency Romance Book (Lords in Waiting 3)

    You do not remember me at all, do you, Your Grace?

    I remember a girl in a rose garden. I did not expect her on my doorstep thirteen years later.

    Cordelia Marchmont has thirteen shillings, a young brother to raise, and a single faded promise to her name.

    When her father dies leaving no fortune and no will, all Cordelia finds is a packet of letters and a contract sealed in a rose garden the summer she was ten, and a small pearl ring she has worn on a chain at her throat ever since. By its terms, she was promised to a boy of twelve who is now the Duke of Ravensmere: a man who, in all the years since, has never written, never called, and has very likely forgotten she exists.

    With her cold-hearted uncle determined to marry her off to a gentleman thrice widowed and more than fifty, Cordelia does the only thing left to her. She sells her mother’s brooch, boards the northbound coach, and travels to Yorkshire to remind a duke of a promise he would much rather forget.

    But a shabby bonnet is turned away at the great house’s door. So when a position opens for a governess to His Grace’s grieving young ward, Cordelia takes it under a borrowed name, telling herself it is only until she can place the contract in his hands.

    She does not expect the quiet, careful man behind the duke’s cold reputation. She does not expect the lonely child who slowly begins to bloom under her care. And she most certainly does not expect the duke to begin looking at his ward’s governess as though he is trying very hard to remember where he has seen her before.

    A promise made by their fathers. A secret she cannot keep forever. And a love that neither of them ever planned to find.

    A heartfelt Regency romance featuring a forgotten promise, a governess in disguise, and a duke who discovers that true love is worth remembering.

    No cheating. No cliffhangers. Just a beautifully earned happily ever after.

    “He owns ten thousand books he has never read. She is the housemaid who has read every one.”

    For four years, Ivy Slade has been invisible. A maid at Wrenfield Park, she keeps her head down, her hands busy, and her secret close: by candlelight, when the great house sleeps, she slips into the duke’s library and devours the education a farmer’s daughter was never meant to have.

    (29)

    A Scandal for the Vengeful Duke: A Historical Steamy Regency Romance Novel (Scandals of the Ton Book 2)

    “Caspian Grave had not touched a woman in fifteen months, and his new wife undid that record in a single afternoon.”

    Lysandra Drayton has been sold to pay her father’s debts, married off to a duke she has never met, a stranger who killed a man in a duel and has lived alone on the Yorkshire moors ever since. They say he is dangerous, and that no woman who enters Stormhaven Hall is ever quite the same when she leaves, but Lysandra has been afraid of too many things, for too many years, to waste her courage on a duke who happens to wear a title and carry a sword.

    What she does not anticipate, when she finally meets him across the drawing room, is the shade of his eyes, or the way his voice drops when he says her name, or the slow and devastating unlocking of something inside her the first time his hands close around her waist.

    The Beast of Stormhaven was meant to be untouchable, his bride meant to fear him, and neither of them is prepared for what comes next.

    He told himself he married her to save her from a predator, though the truth was less honourable and harder to admit, because from the moment he saw her, he wanted to ruin her himself, in every way a man can ruin a woman who has finally said yes.

    But the predator is still hunting, and when he arrives at Stormhaven with a smile like a knife, Caspian will discover that vengeance, once awakened, does not always sleep again quietly.

    A richly emotional Regency romance featuring a scarred hero, a courageous heroine, and a slow-building attraction that neither can resist.

    Perfect for readers who crave tender vulnerability, heart-melting devotion, and passionate romance with a deeply satisfying ending.

    “Or perhaps it is simply one you were never taught to claim.”

    Lydia Fletcher has always understood her place in the world, and has never believed it must limit her worth. Practical, observant, and quietly resolute, she lives by her own principles, never expecting her steady life to be unsettled by a duke known for his icy reserve.

    Frederick Hawthorne, the Duke of Corvenwell, is renowned for his discipline and emotional restraint. Burdened by duty and shaped by loss, he has long believed that control, not hope, is the only safeguard against disappointment.
