Forced into marriage by duty and obligation, The Duke and Duchess of Rothbury parted ways a week after saying their vows under the explicit understanding that theirs was a marriage in name only. There would be no expectations of love, fidelity, or romance. The Duke hates the American Heiress who married him only for his title, completely unaffected by the senseless tragedy that had made their marriage necessary in the first place. When an illness forces him to retire to the country, he makes sure to choose the property where his wife wouldn't be. Except that she is, and she is still as insufferable as ever. The Duchess resents the man who killed her youthful dreams of love and abandoned her to live his bachelor life unencumbered. When she is jilted by her lover, and faced with inevitable ridicule, she decides to retire to her beloved estate in Cornwall, where she runs an orphanage. Never once does she expect to run into her cold, selfish, insufferable arse of a husband! Forced into each other's company by circumstance, the couple begin to unravel their individual prejudices. Resentment turns into respect and friendship. Respect and friendship soon turn into attraction and affection. Was love closer than either one of them could ever have imagined? And that begged the question; can the Duke win his wife's favor, or is it far too late to make their marriage a love match? Cover by MuniWilliams.

After the craziest ten months of her life, she's enjoying the idyllic scenery of Costa Rica with the man of her dreams by her side. Volunteering at a turtle refuge, having endless sex, and relaxing in an infinity pool overlooking the Caribbean Sea -- nothing could possibly burst her bubble. Except maybe some overzealous fans, a slew of hatred on social media, and a viral recording of a past kiss with her famous boyfriend's equally famous best friend. * Euphoria. The fame. The fans. The girl. Ed Stone has been living life on a permanent high. He thought nothing could beat the buzz of singing in an arena full of adoring fans, or hitting number one in the charts, or finding that perfect lyric. Then Sophia Palmer entered his life ten months ago, and everything he thought he knew about happiness changed. No music-induced high can make his heart thump as fast as she does. He used to like the barrier that his stage persona provided, but when he's a squeaky-clean popstar who can do no wrong, his adoring fanbase is quick to vilify anyone who doesn't match up. Including his girlfriend. The solution? It's time for Teddy Stone to show the world a different side of him. * Content warnings: strong sexual content, strong language Sample: This is a sample.

When faced with a choice, Lord Henry Clarke decided to become a famous and accomplished archaeologist rather than a happily married man to the woman of his heart. Now, at the age of one-and-forty, he lives a comfortable life as a bachelor, working as a professor at the University of London and paying regular visits to his two devoted lovers. His life takes an abrupt turn, when his childless older brother commits suicide, making him the next Duke of Grantchester. Yet that's a minor obstacle compared to the fact that he'll also have to marry to keep the money in the family... Miss Sabrina Hartley has New York at her feet... and perhaps all of America! But only one person knows who's behind the pseudonym that pens the most daring and bestselling erotic novels. When, at the age of one-and-thirty, she sees her younger cousin get married, she decides to turn the fiction of her stories into reality. However, her plans are soon thwarted by a series of telegrams from England - in order to keep half of her vast fortune, Sabrina must marry the current Duke of Grantchester as a direct result of an old agreement between their late fathers, Mr Hartley and Lord Clarke. Despite her best friend's warnings, Sabrina somewhat naively sets off to see if she can be happy in England... ...only to discover to her dismay that Henry is a cold and starchy man, his family reject her out of hand, and even the weather is dreadful almost every day! Will she find a way to her husband's heart or will she fulfill her darkest and most forbidden fantasies in the secret embrace of someone else?
