She’s a plain, ever-predicting, and ever-predictable wallflower. He’s the cheeriest man on the planet, with no real plans for his life. When Lady Giselle is spotted cloud watching–documenting, to be precise–she crosses her fingers in hopes that the man will simply pass by. Like every other man has done in her past. Only, this man keeps staring at her until he’s so distracted that he lands himself in the pond. Felix, one of the Ashbourne brothers, is the happy-go-lucky, always smiling, friendly face. Except, of late, he’s struggling with an unusual sense of ennui. All he wants is to go fly his kite and let his thoughts soar. Instead, he finds himself face down in a pond, and then face to face with love. He sees it immediately. But will she? Can Felix reign in his feelings so as not to scare away the most beautiful, most intelligent woman he’s ever met? This is the sixth book in the steamy new regency series, The Ashbourne Legacy, that follows the seven mislabeled brothers of Snow White. Read this novelette if you like sweet and spicy easy reads with witty banter and lovable characters.

What makes people fall in love? Why do two people end up together? Every love story is unique and that's what I love to write. Eliana Piers has been writing and singing stories since she was five years old. After feeling inspired by authors like Julia Quinn, Tessa Dare, and Minerva Spencer, Eliana decided to test her quill on the page. Writing about love and how two people come to connect and share parts of their souls with each other is now an obsession. Eliana lives in Canada where she drinks ice caps every day.
