The first rule of setting a trap is not to get caught in it yourself… Miss Athene Hartville must marry quickly, or risk spending the rest of her days in a gloomy garret, embroidering baby’s gowns. When her flirtatious chaperone secures an invitation to spend the week with an eccentric duke and his guests, Athene’s hopes of finding a rich husband soar. Until, that is, her childhood nemesis Viscount Rushbourne, arrives. He threatens to trample her ambitions into the dust. Struggling to manage his ailing father, a maverick younger brother, and an unwieldy earldom, Rushbourne’s reunion with the fiery Athene is a welcome distraction. Then he uncovers a conspiracy against him that could lead to his total ruin. His only hope is to win Athene’s heart…but can he pay the price and accept her bitter revenge?

She must marry one of her suitors. But she can't trust either of them. Miss Phoebe Duvall’s papa is missing and she and her fragile aunt are in dire need of funds. Employment is one option, but when Phoebe discovers she must marry in three months or forfeit her trust fund, she is forced to find a job that introduces her to as many eligible bachelors as possible. Assisting Charles Addyman with his charitable functions is the perfect answer. But his home, Donhead Castle, is a place of mysteries, not least of which is Addyman’s neighbour, Mr Goodrich. Goodrich swears he’s a friend, but how can Phoebe trust a man who appears as a fop one day, a parson the next, and even attempts to hide from her by pretending to be a statue of a river god? His earldom and his country are at stake, so he can’t afford to lose his head. Or his heart. With a sickly sister to support and his family’s honour to restore, Robert Goodrich-Bligh is fighting to regain his earldom. The charming Miss Duvall’s new employer stands in his way but she refuses to help, even when Robert reveals Addyman to be a traitor. When he uncovers her secret, he offers himself as a husband. That way, each can secure their inheritance and give in to their fierce mutual attraction—the ideal solution, surely? But Robert’s plans are thrown into turmoil when Addyman offers for Phoebe. And she accepts him. If you like complex, swash-buckling heroes and stubborn damsels who try get themselves out of their own distress, grab this book and read it NOW.

The Duke of Wolfingham's scapegrace daughter Seraphina is convinced her lover tried to kill her. Alone, penniless, and desperate, there's nothing she can do to save the life of her beloved baby daughter, Adelina. Sir Rowland Cavendish offers an escape from her grief, but how can Seraphina ever trust a man again? Rowland has just lost his wife, and his baby boy needs feeding. The beautiful young widow from the village would make the perfect wetnurse, but the conditions she sets in exchange for her compliance are not at all what he expects. Seraphina refuses to share her secrets with Rowland, but her past returns to haunt her, threatening her new-found security. Her future hangs on a knife-edge as the game turns deadly, and a web of kidnapping, blackmail, and lies is uncovered. She loves Rowland deeply, but if she doesn't leave him, he may lose what he values above all else. His baby son.
