Two feel-good stories of Regency romance in one bumper edition, filled with witty banter, comic mishaps and scandalous schemes. Both novellas can be read as standalones, with no cliffhangers, no cheating and a guaranteed HEA!
HOW NOT TO ENTRAP A DUKE
Sophy Draper has a plan. Sneak into Almack’s, get caught in a compromising clinch with the honourable Duke of Seale, insist they wed to save her reputation. Marrying into the aristocracy will solve her financial problems and finally grant her access to the glittering high society she’s always been on the fringes of. What could possibly go wrong?
Jack Clayton is here under duress. His mother wants him to reconcile with his older brother, but she doesn’t know the full story behind their falling out. It’s hard to forgive betrayal — especially when it ends in a broken heart — and Jack would rather live up to his ignominious reputation as a rake than dig up secrets that are better left buried.
When Sophy bumps into Jack, things escalate quickly. He’s happy to indulge her with a kiss under the mistletoe, but he wasn’t expecting to put a ring on it. As for Sophy, accidentally entrapping the Duke’s wicked younger brother was not part of her plan…
HOW NOT TO ENTRAP A DUKE is a sweet, clean Regency romance featuring an impoverished heroine, a masked ball, a pair of scheming sisters, a serious case of mistaken identity, and the enemies to lovers trope.
HOW NOT TO ELOPE WITH A SCOUNDREL
Arabella Frampton is looking for adventure. When her handsome and exceedingly charming childhood friend suggests they elope to Gretna Green, she can’t say yes quick enough. A thrilling carriage ride! The peril of pursuit! The chance to silence all the society gossip about her still being unmarried after three Seasons!
Hugh Blackheath just wants a quiet life. He’s only in town to do a favour for an old friend, but when he hears the news of Arabella’s abduction, it seems only right to ride after her and bring her back before her reputation can be ruined. After all, someone has to save the silly little chit from disgrace.
Unluckily for Hugh, Arabella won’t come easily. She doesn’t need to be rescued — especially not by a big, ugly brute — and she came prepared for a fight…
HOW NOT TO ELOPE WITH A SCOUNDREL is a sweet and clean Regency romp featuring a feisty heroine, a grumpy hero, a stolen duelling pistol, a madcap chase, and a forced proximity/opposites attract romance.
Genre: Historical Romance
