Regency Stories

When her father's debt threatens to destroy everything her family has left, Amelia Winfield finds herself with only one choice. Determined to save her parents, her sisters, and the home they stand to lose, she goes to the man now holding their future in his hands-Lord Gabriel Sinclair, the infamous Marquess of Thornefield. A man feared throughout England for being the cruelest man in position. A man known for granting neither second chances nor mercy. Yet when Amelia pleads for compassion, Gabriel offers something else entirely. Marriage. Amelia cannot live with the knowledge that her family might suffer when she could have done something to prevent it. Even if the price is her own happiness, even if it means becoming the wife of the man society calls the Devil Marquess, she will pay it. What awaits her inside Thornefield House, she cannot know. She can only hope that the mercy denied to her as a stranger might someday be granted to her as his wife. ~~~~~ Author's Note: This fifteen-chapter novel was written with love for readers who enjoy shorter stories filled with slow-burn romance. I hope you felt the same anticipation, heartache, and tenderness that I experienced while writing Amelia and Gabriel's journey. While I occasionally write Regency romances with more explicit content, this story was written differently, and perhaps one day I will dedicate a separate novel to that style. Thank you for reading. With love, Mae Casa

And now, despite his promise to fake a death certificate after their wedding--to free her of any duty to him or their marriage bed--he sends for her in the dead of night with startling news: his father has been murdered, and he is now the Duke of Ascot with a wife he can no longer deny...

To protect those she loves, she would do anything-even strike a bargain with the devil himself.

London, 1825. Bianca Lombardi knows exactly what is expected of a woman like her: attend balls, make polite conversation, and eventually marry a respectable gentleman. Unfortunately, Bianca has never been particularly interested in doing what is expected. Behind her carefully composed smile lies a secret that could ruin her reputation, disgrace her family, and destroy the life she has built in England. While society concerns itself with gossip and marriage prospects, Bianca spends her nights where no lady of the ton should ever be seen, helping those the world has chosen to ignore. Benedict Bridgerton has spent the last year surviving rather than living. Widowed young and raising four children alone, he has convinced himself that love belongs to the past. His family disagrees. When Bianca unexpectedly becomes part of the Bridgertons' world, she finds herself drawn into a family unlike any she has ever known-warm, chaotic, impossible to resist. And Benedict finds himself increasingly unable to ignore the intelligent, stubborn Italian woman who seems determined to save everyone except herself. But secrets have a way of surfacing, and London is always watching. As rumours spread and old wounds refuse to heal, Bianca and Benedict must decide whether some risks are worth taking... and whether love can arrive when neither of them is looking for it. A slow-burn Regency romance about grief, healing, family, and choosing who you become when the world tells you who you should be.

In the glittering capital of Caelhurst, where marble colonnades catch the morning mist and gaslight wars with shadow in cobblestone alleys, the Ton moves through its paces like a gilded clockwork.. balls, soirées, parliamentary sessions, and whispered assignations. But beneath the Empire-waist gowns and powdered wigs, Caelhurst festers. The slave trade from Siamora thrives in its wharves. Human flesh is brokered in drawing rooms. Laudanum flows like wine through the veins of the aristocracy. And murder wears a smile. Lord Kim Jisoo, the reluctant Duke of Yeonshire, inherited a dukedom soaked in secrets: his brother's "hunting accident" that was no accident, his father's laudanum-maddened raving. The dukedom passed to him after his brother Jimin died, and with it, he inherited an arranged betrothal to a woman he has only seen twice, a union forged not in affection but in duty. But Caelhurst has not finished with him. By night, a figure moves through the Gentleman's Club and the darker quarters of Seoryn Crescent, a slight, scholarly young man named Mr. Rosen, whose pen scratches ledgers by lamplight and whose eyes miss nothing. Mr. Rosen is the disguise of a lady hunting for the truth of her mother's murder. Her disguise is flawless, her resolve absolute, and her path is about to collide with a duke who has forgotten how to feel. What neither knows: the threads they pull lead to the same center. ** This is a fanfiction Chaesoo story Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

My dear Miss Featherington, I hope you will forgive the liberty of this letter, but I have discovered that certain gratitudes grow restless if left unspoken, and I find mine has been pacing the length of my mind for some time now. I wished to tell you-properly, and without interruption-how much I owe you. Do you recall that afternoon in the gardens, some months ago now? You were waiting for my sister, half-hidden by the hedges, the late sun catching in your hair as though it had conspired to set you alight. I remember thinking you looked otherworldly-like some fiery fairy who had lost her way and settled, briefly, among mortals. I sketched you then. I did not intend to at first; my hand simply moved before I had thought better of it. And I continued to do so, on other days, from other angles, always when you did not see me. Until, of course, you did. I confess I expected embarrassment-perhaps even reproach. Instead, you looked upon the sketch as though it were something precious. You said it was beautiful. More than that, you told me I should pursue such work if it stirred me so deeply. No one had ever spoken to me thus before. My family indulges my drawing as one might indulge a child's fondness for toy soldiers-amiable, harmless, and entirely temporary. You were the first to suggest it might be more. That it might be mine. It was shortly after that I resolved to apply to the Royal Academy of Arts, having at last concluded my studies at Eton. I do not flatter myself into believing I shall set the world alight-but I am going, Miss Featherington. I am choosing something for myself. And for that courage, such as it is, I have you to thank. Yours most sincerely, Benedict Bridgerton.

John Hampton had not always been a serf. Prior to working for the lively Bridgerton family in Mayfair, he had grown up in a small hamlet in Somerset, where he had spent his days with the local physician's daughter, Harriet. Fifteen years later and the girl with the cold stare was but a mere echo in the back of his mind as he waited on the Bridgertons, his life dedicated to theirs. He had half given up on the idea of any sort of future, knowing little would change due to his position. Until one day he was gracefully hurrying through crowds, attempting to halt the Viscountess' pursuit for her second son, and bumped into a face unchanged by time. And John discovered that, maybe, his heart was unchanged, also. Footman John x OC Started: 08/02/2026 Finished: Rankings: #4 in sophiebaek #3 in footmanjohn #2 in violetbridgerton
