If the scandal of his inheritance ever got out he'd be ruined forever. Magnus Langmore, the Duke of Yarmouth lives everyday with a secret that could destroy his family line. He was never the true heir to his father's dukedom. Birthed by one of his father's mistresses, he was raised as if he were the Duchess's own child. All the years that she could never bring herself to love him left himself with a void he never wished to fill. Love did not exist in his world. He spent his days hard trained and invested into the work of the Dukedom. He felt he had to work twice as hard because it wasn't in his blood. But, when a pureblood-daughter of a Duke crosses his path on the verges of a scandal, he finds himself utterly engrossed with Lady Ambrosia Somerville. If love does not exist, then why does she make him feel otherwise? When the opportunity finally presents itself for him to ask for her hand, will the fears of his past get in the way of a potentially happy future in their marriage bed? Rated Mature: 🔥 [#1 Regenecyera ] {#1 1800's}

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.

The words graceful, proper, ladylike and elegant could never be used to describe Perrie Beresford, the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Ashwood. Perrie has always had a little too much fire in her to ever be classified as a beautiful young debutante, which is what she will inevitably become in her first Season. But romance, courting, and marriage are the last things on Perrie's mind. Especially when her nemesis, who was once an annoying classmate, suddenly appears in her home as her father's protégé. As Perrie is pushed towards the life of an adult by those around her, she can't help but be pulled into a game of wars within the walls of her very home. But Perrie is about to learn that the line between love and hate are very fine ... and perhaps might not even exist at all.
