Fainting at the feet of the handsome, extremely eligible young duke she is introduced to at her first London ball is the single most humiliating experience of Diana Creighton’s life.

It’s the trip of a lifetime, the chance to escape the humiliating gossip and the machinations of her matchmaking mother. But when one of the first people she encounters in Venice is the very same arrogant duke who caused her troubles in the first place, Diana realises she can’t run far or fast enough to escape. Although… Will Balford doesn’t seem nearly so stuffy and arrogant, away from the stifling expectations of the Ton.

Each book can be read as a standalone and are suitable for readers of all ages.

I've been writing since I was 5 years old. I've always had to set it aside and try to concentrate on so-called 'real life' though. I've had a number of interesting careers - engineer, real estate sales agent, owner of an electrical goods store, silversmith - but finally the time has come for me to return to my first love. Writing. I've always loved the works of Jane Austen, so perhaps it's fitting that my first published work should be a variation on the much beloved Pride And Prejudice. Visit my website, www.catherinebilson.com, to read several free short fics in the Pride and Prejudice fandom, and to leave me comments on my work! I also write not-for-profit fanfiction set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and if you'd like to read those free works please go to the Archive Of Our Own and search for the user handle ozhawk.
