"Lady Tamsin Bell, daughter of a duke, has everything a lady could want. She has a fine house in London, exquisite ball gowns, and a generous dowry.
But she doesn't have Captain Henry Talbot.
When artifacts from her private collection start to go missing, Tamsin is on the hunt—and Henry has no choice but to go with her. Because he's always been aware of Tamsin. When he was fighting war at sea, she was all that he could think of. But now that he's back, he's not good enough for her.
No matter how tempting she is.
But he'll destroy anyone who threatens her happiness. She shines too brightly, and he'll do whatever it takes to protect her shine. From himself. From a thief who is willing to kill to protect his secret. And from his father. The earl is a bully and a tyrant, but he's never dealt with a Cinderella before.
And a Cinderella always gets her man.
Contains mature themes."
"When Dougal is plucked from a millhouse as the last Duke of Thorncroft, he doesn't know the rules of Society. Meg does. She'll save him from the bullies and the treasure hunters.
Meg Swift has a tiny problem with stealing. What else is she to do when her uncle triples the estate rents? She learns how to mend roofs, plant turnips—and how to steal. She's too busy for her godfather's parade of single gentlemen at the Cinderella Ball.
Dougal Black has just been plucked from a millhouse as the last of the Thorncroft duchy bloodline. And if he's not married by the end of the year, the Prince of Wales will choose his bride for him. But Dougal doesn't know the rules of this new world. Luckily, Meg does.
They will have to contend with dozens of debutantes on house tours hoping for a glimpse of the single duke, and treasure hunters who will stop at nothing to get what they want from the historic Thorncroft Abbey.
Meg can't abide a bully. So she'll help Dougal. Even if she has to marry him to do it.
Contains mature themes."
"Bad girls burn hot . . .
Red is the color of Kia Alcott's hair. It's her temper, which blazes hot and always gets Kia into way too much trouble. And it's the color of fire. Fires that Kia can start . . . just by thinking about them.
When her latest 'episode' gets her kicked out of school, Kia is shipped off to her grandmother, who works for the wealthy Blackwoods. It's an estate shrouded in secrets, surrounded by rules, and presided over by a family that is far from normal . . . including the gorgeous and insolent Ethan Blackwood.
Ethan knows far more about the dangers of the forest surrounding the estate than Kia can ever imagine. For this forest has teeth, and Ethan is charged with protecting the outside world from its vicious mysteries.
But inside, even the most vibrant shade of red doesn't stand a chance against the dark secrets of the Blackwood family . . ."
"Dating isn't easy when you're in the middle of a blood feud.
Anastasia Vila's family can turn into swans, but just once she'd like them to turn into responsible adults.
After hundreds of years, they still cling to the blood feud with the Renard family. No one remembers how it started in the first place—but foxes and swans just don't get along.
Vilas can only transform into their swan shape after they have fallen in love for the first time, but between balancing schoolwork, family obligations, and the escalating blood feud, Ana's got no time for love. The only thing keeping her sane is her best friend, Pierce Kent.
But when Pierce kisses Ana, everything changes.
Is what Pierce feels for her real, or a byproduct of her magic? Can she risk everything for her best friend? And when the family feud spirals out of control, Ana must stop the fight before it takes away everything she loves.
Including, maybe . . . Pierce."
"A Bluestocking, a betrothal of convenience, a traitor . . . and a handsome rake. What could go wrong?
Persephone Blackwell prefers digging in the dirt for old bones and secret treasure to anything Society might have to offer. When her godfather, the Duke of Pendleton, decides to host a Festival of Antiquaries, she jumps at the chance to take part—especially since it's the best way to save her oldest friend, Henry Talbot, who is being framed for treason. She has not yet found the evidence that he has sent home hidden inside Egyptian forgeries—but she does find something else: Conall Hunter, the Earl of Northwyck.
The Conall she knew before the war was shy and serious, but this new Conall is a celebrated rake with a practiced charm and a dangerous grin. Persephone finds them both irresistible. Rumor has it, he is searching for a wife. Not that Percy is on the Marriage Mart. After all, earls do not marry ladies with scandalous pasts and a penchant for the mummification process of Ancient Egypt.
As it happens, Conall is secretly searching for a traitor, not a bride. But he is beginning to wonder if Persephone might fight both categories.
Contains mature themes."
