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.

•It was originally posted on tumblr, my tumblr is @alewritesfics▪︎ ♡Anthony Bridgerton x reader♡ Anthony Bridgerton has declared he's looking for a wife, his future viscountess.

However, with a new season also means new comers, and the Sharma family has entered this season. *This follows Bridgerton season 2*

"You can't marry him, Dor." His hands cupped her warm face, forcing her to look him in the eye. "I don't have a choice, Ben." He felt hot tears under his fingers, as she closed her eyes, and soft eyelashes rested on his thumbs. He felt his throat burn, seeing her like this. She was forced into the marriage. It all made sense now. She fought to catch breath, and Benedict felt his heart falling apart in his chest. "It's all my fault." "No. It's our fault. But I'm the girl. That was my only mistake, being a woman in a world where all the mistakes are harmless, if you are a man." Dorothy is the third daughter of Lord and Lady Quinn. She made her debut three seasons ago, despite her resentment. Luckily for her, she had no luck in securing a bachelor. This season, however, things are about to change... When her mama finds out Dorothy lost her chastity and refuses to admit whom with, she is forced to marry Lord Haddington, a man twice her age.

**Dearest Readers,** My quills have been sharpened in eager anticipation of the 1815 season, and I daresay it shall prove as thrilling as any before it. New faces grace our glittering ballrooms - most notably the daughters of the Earl of Somerset, presented to society for the very first time. Yours truly, **Lady Whistledown's Society Papers** ~ The Earl's daughters are opposites in every regard. Lady Marie, the younger, is softness and sweetness itself, earning the coveted title of Diamond of the Season. Her beauty and gentle charm quickly capture the admiration of Mr. Benedict Bridgerton, who appears every inch the attentive suitor. Yet it is her elder sister, Lady Esther - sharp-witted, bold, and far less inclined toward obedience - who truly unsettles him. With their father quietly pressing for a match to secure his own hidden interests, what begins as a season of promise soon becomes a matter of urgency. And when fate intervenes, it is not the sister meant to be chosen who must secure a husband before the final dance. For in matters of the heart, dear reader, desire rarely follows expectation.

"No romance. No love. We shall live as two people taking on their duties, not as a husband and wife.. I sincerely hope you understand that this is an arranged marriage, it is practically a business deal." "I assure you, my Lord, I am well aware of the circumstances, having already agreed to them as such." Lady Lily Anne Jones never dreamt of becoming a Viscountess. To be fair, she rarely dreamt of anything. She knew from a very young age, as the only child of Earl Jones, her duty was to find a respectable gentleman to marry. At the age of three and twenty, she found out, her father had already arranged that for her, and for no less than a Viscount Bridgerton, most desirable bachelor.
