AFTER FOREVER by

a rogue into a gentleman and receives lessons in love and desire.
Widowed Lady Julianna Barrows never wants to
fall in love again. But when the notorious former boxer Nash Overton

THE PIRATE’S DUCHESS by
KATHERINE BONE -
A duke masquerading
as a pirate to "rob from the rich and give to the poor" sheds
his darkest-kept secrets to keep from losing the duchess his wife has become.
Duty forces
him to take on the pirate code, but honor brings him back.
Prudence,
Duchess of Blackmoor, has one desire—to be happy again. After struggling to
overcome the horrifying death of her husband, she accepts an earl’s offer of
marriage, confident she’s taking a step in the right direction. But demons, refuse
to die, and Prudence finds herself caught in an intricate web of deceit that
threatens the very foundations of all she holds dear.
Tobias,
the Duke of Blackmoor, crosses the line when an assassination attempt on him
fails. To restore the reputations of friends under attack by the same villain,
and ensure his wife’s safety, he stages his own death, becoming The Black
Regent, a notorious pirate bent on brandishing justice, never thinking he’d
survive. But to his amazement, he has, and now the darkest-kept secrets are not
worth losing the duchess his wife has become.
HER SCANDALOUS
WISH by COLLETTE CAMERON
A
marriage offer obligated by duty . . . an acceptance compelled by desperation.
Philomena
Pomfrett is resigned to spinsterhood, but to ease her dying brother’s fretting,
she reluctantly agrees to attend a London Season with one purpose—to acquire a
husband. Stumbling upon her hiding in a secluded garden arbor during a ball,
Bradford, Viscount Kingsley doesn’t recognize his first love, yet something
about the mysterious woman enthralls him, and he steals a passionate, moonlit
kiss.
Caught
in the act by Philomena’s brother, Bradford is issued an ultimatum—a duel or
marry Philomena. He offers marriage, but even impoverished and with no other
decent prospects, she rejects his half-hearted proposal until her brother
collapses. Now, Philomena’s faced with marrying a man who deserted her once
already.
MILADY AND HER SPY by JILLIAN
CHANTAL
A lady, a spy, a traitor… a battle of wills.
Raised
in the country after her mother’s death with only the company of three unruly
brothers, Lady Augusta Covington is more proficient at fencing, riding and
playing cards than being prim and proper. Myles Cuthbert, a spy in His
Majesty’s service on a mission to find and expose a traitor, crosses paths with
Lady Augusta when she rides to the aid of her brother, believing him to be
injured. With the assignment at risk, Cuthbert agrees to accept the assistance
of the troublesome lady eager for intrigue. As they move forward, his sense of
obligation to her and the danger involved stir his soul.

trusted. But his seductive smile and enticing kisses awaken a passion that
