Description

Beauty And The Brooding Viscount - Jeanine Englert

To make her mark... she must find his match!

It’s a tale as old as time: Lucas Worthing, a wealthy Viscount, is reluctantly obliged to find a high-society wife. Especially with a deathbed promise to his mother to fulfil! But the odds are stacked against battle-scarred Lucas when the gossip sheets persist in calling him The Beast of Barnett House. Enter the Cupid’s Arrow Agency...

Matchmaking for reclusive Lucas won’t be easy, but plucky Ophelia Granger isn’t deterred by his imposing castle or gruff demeanour. If she can pull this off, her business stands a chance of success. Yet there’s nothing harder than finding a bride for the man you’re falling for yourself!

The Trouble With A Fake Courtship - Maggie Weston

Will a courtship ruse... lead to complete ruination?

Roguish gentleman Jameson Russell is given an ultimatum by his brother: marry or be cut off. So, he hatches a foolproof plan — find a lady so entirely unsuitable to court, that his brother will beg him to stay a bachelor!

Society has shunned Charity Beaumont since her broken engagement, and her sister’s shameful elopement. So, she accepts Jameson’s scandalous offer as a means of freedom from London’s scathing gossipmongers — on one condition: Jameson will not touch her. But that’s the trouble with a fake courtship, even the strictest rules can’t tame blazing desires...
