WHEN AN UNLIKELY SUITOR.... The Earl of Stokeford is hardly a man of amiable disposition and social graces. He scowls whenever he pleases, becomes rude at any time convenient for him, and worse, has a regrettable tendency to scare ladies out of their wits. Therefore, it is a most astonishing thing indeed when, upon laying eyes on the beautiful Miss Sophie Winscott, he decides to embark on a courtship... Except, of course, the hapless peer knows nothing in the matters of romance...until he receives help from an unlikely quarter. MEETS AN EAGER MATCHMAKER Then enter Miss Winscott's cousin, the vivacious Caroline Davis, who oddly gets along well with the slightly waspish Earl. Determined to help, Caroline endeavours to make a match of the two. But for all her enthusiasm, she can't help but be drawn to the troubled lord... and things start to get a little tangled from there.

Anthony Fielding, tired of being the target of the ton's marriage-minded mothers, hopes to spend a relaxing week shooting and fishing in the country. Yet upon his arrival at Blackwood Hall he discovers an estate in chaos, and a friend in desperate need of help. He is quick to offer his knowledge and expertise, unaware that his generosity will have unexpected repercussions.

"A pleasure to meet you. I'm-" "Alexander Hamilton," I finish for him. "I know who you are." *** September 25, 2018, started out as an ordinary day. Eliza Schuyler went to school, took some notes, and went to a party (at the behest of her best friend). That is until she finds herself in the year 1778. Confused and disorientated, she meets Alexander Hamilton, and his friends and comrades, where she lays witness and becomes a participant to the events of the Revolutionary War. What she doesn't expect, though, is her growing feelings for Alexander Hamilton, the dashing Patriot officer and aide-de-camp of General Washington, and the feeling that perhaps she's been in 1778 before... **FIRST PLACE WINNER OF THE 2019 SUMMER AWARDS** ** FIRST PLACE WINNER OF THE 2019-2020 FREEDOM AWARDS**
