Fearless Francesca von emsinspire

It's 1516 and the Italian Renaissance is booming. Our story starts with two very young different people. Francesca Visconti is a beautiful girl who's able to charm those with her quick wit and unseen intelligence hidden between the layers of thick unruly red hair. Giovanni D'Medici is one hell of a rake who beds any common whore and even his maids. He doesn't believe in love or such and thinks his future bride to be is an ugly hag just as rumours say. In the easiest terms to explain, he's a plain bastard. But everything changes when the two are brought together through the classic means of an arranged marriage. Though with a rake like Giovanni, will Francesca ever feel happiness? Even when he's touching another woman a few rooms next door?

A Bet On Hearts [Romantic Comedy] von Sylvia-Norcroft

[IMPORTANT: This is a closed-door romance story that caters to readers who are uncomfortable reading heavy erotica and adult scenes.] Miss Mina Haswell has always been a firm believer in matters of the heart, holding steadfast to the notion of love, especially when it came to her betrothed, a dear childhood friend. However, fate took a cruel turn, as she found herself draped in mourning attire, her heart shrouded in grief, unable to fathom the prospect of love ever gracing her life again. Following her father's untimely demise, the esteemed title of Viscount Sinclair, which he had borne with distinction, is unexpectedly passed on to a distant kinsman, the somewhat reclusive Mr. Royston Langdon. As their paths converge, Mina and Royston embark upon an unconventional journey, filled with twists of fate and unforeseen challenges. Intrigued by the enigmatic Miss Haswell, Mr. Langdon proposes an audacious wager - a game of hearts. If Mina succeeds in aiding Royston in winning the affections of his potential bride, he pledges to magnify her inheritance settlement threefold. In return, should Royston assist Mina in capturing the heart of her desired suitor, she would be compelled to relinquish her beloved summer residence, a sanctuary where her fondest memories were woven, amounting to a significant portion of her settlement. Their stakes are equal, for Mina had lived far from the scrutinizing gaze of the ton, while Royston remains a newcomer to its glittering, complex world. Yet patience is not a virtue Miss Haswell is known for, and Mr. Langdon seems to derive a peculiar pleasure from vexing her at every turn. Amidst the whirlwind of emotions, societal expectations, and their ever-escalating exchanges, a question lingers: Could this daring wager, initiated by the whims of fate, possibly result in a victor, or would the unpredictable game of love rewrite the rules entirely? TW: Contains mature themes! The story is also posted on Inkitt. #historicalromance

He had closed that part off from himself after being scarred and burned long ago... So when it just so happens that he notices a woman he's quite never seen before, and her sweet little angle daughter seemingly residing on the lands that have always been adjacent to his country seat estate, which he never bothered to reside in, he couldn't help but feel something pulling at his heart. . . All along it was the key to unlock it. Rated: Mature🔥 {#1 in COURTSHIP} {#1 REGENCY-ERA} {#1 REGENCY}
