It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of her own business and independence, must be in want of a man who wants more than a damn one-night-stand. Right?! Annie La Fontaine is fed up with modern dating. Too many non-committal guys, too many disappointments, and definitely not enough romantic yearning. So when she decides to create a monthly Regency-style ball in her small Australian town, she is unprepared for both its success AND for one very specific suitor who arrives unannounced (how rude!): Blake Byrne, her first love and the man who broke her heart years ago. Blake knows better than to try again with Annie - romancing his sister's best friend all those years before had been a mistake, and he is still putting the broken pieces of his life back together after a terrible accident. But in love, the heart wants what it wants, and as Annie and Blake find themselves unable to stop the gravitational pull back towards each other, will they be able to put their pasts behind them and their hearts back on the line? Or will the rules of a Regency romance be too challenging to overcome?

Anastasia Rockefeller had a slight problem with the Sinclair's. And that problem was that they were 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 like her family. Picture perfect, not a single speck out of place. Impossibly high standards that could never be met. The only difference between the two prestigious families was that one was full heads of blonde hair and the other was full heads of brown hair. The Rockefeller's island was right next to Beechwood, although theirs was called Avalon. The youngest daughter of the family would always spend her summers at Beechwood, it felt more like home than anywhere else. Or maybe it was 𝘩𝘪𝘮 that felt like home.
