Regency-england Stories

A younger sister cannot wed before an older sister. It's a law of their society, a rule vehemently obeyed by prominent families in the nobility, and it's always been Ella Harrington's buffer. Ella has never been interested in marrying for anything short of love itself. Unfortunately for her, love is a rarity in the marriages of the aristocracy. Fortunately for her, her sister Emily is precisely one year older than her and is the most unpleasant, disagreeable, sulking woman to ever debut in all of England. So Ella may never have to marry at all. A free woman, she enjoys her time on the sidelines and wishes for nothing more. That is, until a tall, dark, and brooding Duke comes to town alongside an old friend of her brother's. Suddenly, Ella finds herself questioning the antiquated marriage order rule as her buffer begins to feel more like a barrier. Not that it matters. The Duke isn't interested in her anyway. Right?

When Letitia Sharpe is pursued by her odious guardian, coerced to give him her hand in marriage, she flees to the only friend she has: the dashing Lord Archie Pemberton... her favorite author.

At first, pretending to be Lord Pemberton-- as Archibald commands-- is a bit of a lark. Robert finds he enjoys being able to take the credit for the books he wrote, and quickly realizes Letitia is far more brainy than Lord Pemberton and her guardian both assume. Together they turn the tables on stuffy Lord Archie. Still, he knows he can't let his true feelings for her show-- he's pretending to be Lord Pemberton, and Lord Pemberton is engaged. But when Letitia's wicked guardian comes to take her away and wed her against her will, and Lord Pemberton's elegant fiance descends on Martingale House, the truth will have to come out... one way or another!
