Her grace is astounding; her beauty could only be matched to a magical princess of a faraway land. She should have suitors lining up for miles and miles, but the thing about Florence was she had no intention of marrying someone her parents approved. She was fascinated by the son of a stable owner whose desires were on his art. Will Florence shut herself from all men? Or will she eventually gain the attraction she so desires? Or will she chase someone else to appease her family?

Ares had enough and pulled his wife roughly by the waist, trapping her underneath him. "I've had enough of your teasing games. If you don't shut that pretty mouth of yours, I won't hesitate to do so for you." Ares replied with a growl of frustration, his hands on either side of her head. Chuckling at his level of restraint. Raquel brought her arms up to wrap them around his neck.

Sincerely Yours by tehyayoung

In 1800s England, a well-meaning but selfish young woman will do anything to avoid matrimony to the county's finest suitors and to justly prove she doesn't need a husband to find her way in society. Even under the peril of her uncle losing his property and business to debt. In all but two months, she must prove to her family she's more than capable without a husband and can, in fact, exceed society's expectations of the female sex. But what woman can write what she hardly knows of the world, and its secrets? And most of all, how far is she willing to prove herself toward society and the Lord? At what cost for love? Maxmillian Knightley has returned from university in London, now facing the looming title of marquis. With that title comes responsibility to interact with those he despises most, and with which he must fight for his inheritance. But how far will he go in order to grow favor in the scrutiny of society and his stiff-neck father? He may be everything a woman of the ton looks for in a husband - titled, wealthy, and cheek bones that can draw in any woman - but he is in no mood to humor eligible women by participating in all things reformed. The question is: how far will he go to do everything against his own sensibility and judgment? For inheritance ... or for loyalty and love? The only common enlightenment between two entirely different sexes? A fondness for penmanship and our humorous Lord who writes the very novelty of life itself. And what happens if proving oneself leads to something quite worse? When it comes to love, making the right choices, these two are their own worst enemies.

Elizabeth has studied for many years now and is finally ready for her first courting season. She has it all figured out: she wants to marry a wealthy man who will love her and give her many children. She's got her eye on her brother's best friend, Duke Liam Arlington, the eternal bachelor. And it soon turns out that Elizabeth has caught his attention as well. Their marriage will follow soon... or won't it? We all know about the Victorian Era. The many balls and social events. Splendid dresses. London's famous courting season. This love story is a different kind of love story, though not less real. It's about a love that was and perhaps still isn't as accepted as it should be, but therefore not less powerful or wonderful. This story is about one of the most important battles in one's life: the battle to love whoever one wants.
