In the small country town of Flame Tree Bay, everyone knows Sarah Attwell. The older folk remember her when she was barely knee high. Her teachers know Sarah as a dedicated student, and her friends will tell you she is the quintessential girl next door. There isn't much to not like about Sarah. That is until you meet her twin brother, Danny. Danny had always been an outcast. He just never managed to fit in. At school he hung around the misfits and troublemakers; smoking behind the sports shed and skipping classes. People used to say he'd grow out of it; that it was just a phase, only he never did. Every family has a black sheep, and for the Attwell's that's Danny. Problem with that is, he isn't a sheep at all. ---- Warning: contains violence, adult themes and undoubtedly a few grammatical errors. {unedited} ©2014 ellarose12

NO LONGER AVAILABLE ON WATTPAD Jessica Howerty fell for her brother's best friend when she was a young girl, and never quite recovered. Now, all grown-up, she knows that a disreputable rake like Jacob Hurst is the last thing she should want. After two seasons in London, she's tired of looking for a husband she never wanted anyway. So when Jacob's father offers her to spend the summer at his estate, she thankfully accepts. Then Jacob unexpectedly visits and her plans for a quiet season are immediately ruined, what with her heart skipping a beat every time the handsome earl is near. Jacob Hurst, the Earl of Wortham, has worked very hard on his less-than-favourable reputation to ensure he never marries, all to annoy his father. Though sparks fly whenever they're in the same room, he has never allowed himself to think of Jessica as anything other than his best friend's little sister. That all changes when he finds out she's spending the summer at his father's estate. After years of avoiding his ancestral home, Jacob returns home, even if it means he has to spend more time in Jessica's presence than is good for his peace of mind.

John Osborne has a promising career with the War Office and lacks for nothing. Except, possibly, a wife. Unfortunately, the woman he wants only has eyes for someone else. When a shared friend offers to help him win his love's heart--if only he will assist her on a case--he reluctantly agrees. He can put up with their grating presence if it affords him the chance of the happily ever after he so desperately craves. Lady Mary Kinson is happily counting down the days until she will officially be considered 'on the shelf'. Spinsterhood is looking rather appealing when getting married means giving up everything and trusting your husband to care for you. She'd rather use her dowry for a quiet life on her own. Until her younger sister does the unthinkable and Mary has to enlist the help of a friend to save her family from ruin.
