Lady Aria Alford, daughter of the Duke of Wellington has always dreamed of finding love.

Lord Nicholas Sterling, aspiring physician and son of the Earl of Suffolk dreams of starting his own practice after returning back home from studying and travelling abroad.

Unforeseen circumstances, mystery, murder? Much awaits Aria and Nicholas as their paths cross. Both looking to accomplish their dreams, but just what will it take to reach them?

A cat, a raven, and a missing ring lead to scandal for the old earl's bastard grandson and the baker's daughter. The missing heir to the Earl of Ravenstone has come forward, cutting out Fletcher Graham's brother. The new heir offers proof of his identity in the form of a family signet ring. When the ring disappears, Fletch suspects a woman he saw leaving his grandfather's office, and he resolves to confront her. She's no servant, however, she's the baker's daughter, a savvy businesswoman. Her determination to help confounds him as much as his growing attraction to her. Supplying ginger biscuits and apple tarts to Ravenstone Castle brought Anna Hale fame and a brisk business. A missing ring threatens that business, and her champion mouser appears to be in the middle of the mystery. Anna inserts herself into the investigation only to find herself caught in a scandal that leads to a sham betrothal. She knows she must find a way out of it; she just isn't sure she wants to.

**WINNER of 3 awards in 2016 and 2017** [[+18]] ** this book is on hold for now, but I haven't abandoned it. I'll do my best to get back and finish it, and many thanks for the amazing support from Aella fans <3 ** Aella is an island far away in the sea, with a few smaller islands around it. It is said that only the wind reaches it and ships rarely sail that far as it is mostly secluded from other lands. The Aellos is a tribe of several clans of hunters and warriors that existed for centuries on that island. Over the years, and mostly due to the harsh weather, the number of women have dropped drastically leading to fights and wars between the different clans of the tribe. Tired of being both subjects of dispute and objects of treaties, the proud women, referred to as Aellas, declared their own clan and secluded themselves in their own territory. Now there are only two clans: the Aellas, living in the north part of the island and above a very high cliff, and the Aellos, which is the clan of men living in the forests and small mountains on the rest of the island. All the laws of the tribe are now set for one purpose only: protecting the women and the survival of the tribe. To that reason, both clans meet once a year for what they call: Agape, the season of love, where a male from the Aellos and a woman from the Aellas choose each other to live together and enjoy each other's company for a month. Ceri, a 17 years old, is the only man living with the Aella clan. He was born and raised there, never once stepping foot beyond the limit of their territory... until the day he met the gorgeous Ithel. This is a romantic love story between the innocent Ceri and the lonely hunter, Ithel. [Disclaimer: Contains adult themes and graphic content + abuse and ra pe to be expected + manxman]
