LADY HOPE'S DASHING DEVIL by AVA STONE
Lady Hope Post has suffered the most rotten luck over the
last year. She’s lost the love of her life. Her great-uncle
and Machiavellian matchmaker the Duke of Danby has a special
license just waiting for her somewhere. And after one tiny
little phaeton accident in the park, the most devilish earl
attempts to blackmail her over the incident.
Thaddeus Baxter, the Earl of Kilworth has every intention of
restoring luster to the earldom he’s inherited from his
ne’er-do-well cousin, but when an adventurous lady upends
his phaeton in the park, all of Thad’s perfectly respectable
plans are tossed out the window. What are the odds he’d
cross paths with the same girl who’d nearly brought down his
cousin’s earldom in the first place? And what are the odds
he’d lose his heart to her as well?
IT'S IN THE DUKE'S KISS by JULIE JOHNSTONE
Lady Emmaline Radcliffe always knew she never wanted to
marry a man who embraced the rules of Society. But when her
mother threatens to secure a suitable match for Emma if she
cannot make one on her own, Emma sets out to determine if
her girlhood infatuation is the love she’s been looking for.
Nathaniel did save her life once, after all. But when she
finds herself in the arms of the gentleman’s brother—the
serious and proper Duke of Blackbourne—she begins to
question all she ever thought she desired.
Lucian, the Duke of Blackbourne, is tired of playing keeper
to his irresponsible brother. He vows to quit, but when his
brother resolves to seduce the impetuous Lady Emmaline,
Lucian knows he must save his foolish brother and the
innocent debutante from themselves. Yet his plan to
intercede goes awry when he finds himself drawn to the woman
who is everything he was positive he didn’t want in a wife.
But his brother won’t give up so easily, and soon Lucian’s
well-intentioned plans are revealed. Now to keep Lady
Emmaline’s heart he must prove that he’s truly not the
stuffy, sneaky duke he seems to be.
