What Dougless never imagined was how strong the chains are that tie them to the past...or the grand adventure that lay before themTodos os Direitos Reservados

The Accidental Duchess, de littleLo

When the arrogant stranger Bess is forced to marry unexpectedly becomes a duke, she'll find herself at odds with her growing feelings as he hunts for a killer. ***** Sharp-tongued Elizabeth 'Bess' Jones is perfectly content living on her lonesome in a tiny village south of Derbyshire. She works as a nurse, owns a small home, and finds the label of 'spinster' an agreeable trade for her independence. But when her entire life is uprooted in an instant, she only has one person to blame: her new husband, Emmett Wilde, who was caught in a compromising situation with her. 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...

A Christmas Pact, de phoebeblaque

An Unexpected Marriage... Peter Wentworth, the Viscount of Vauxhall, must wed by Christmas or lose his title to a wicked cousin who would see his tenants suffer. Marriage is the last thing on Peter's mind, but duty demands it. Just when hope seems lost, fate brings him face to face with Lydia Halls, the daughter of the late Lord Masonwood, who is also under pressure to marry. Without a husband by Christmas, Lydia and her mother will be cast out of their home. Bound by necessity and with time running out, Peter and Lydia are forced into an arrangement neither of them desires. Can they find a way to save each other, or will their growing connection complicate everything? Reluctant Affection... Lydia Halls has only ever wanted one thing-security for her mother. Marriage was never part of her plan, but with the threat of losing their family estate looming, she has no choice but to consider the unthinkable. Enter Peter Wentworth, a man equally uninterested in love but bound by obligation. His presence stirs something unexpected within her-an attraction she struggles to ignore. As their wedding date draws closer, Lydia finds herself falling for the man she thought would be her salvation, but now might be the one to steal her heart. Caught between duty and desire, Peter and Lydia must decide if they can turn a marriage of convenience into something more before time runs out.

The Black Swan and the Officer, de DarlaCassic

Despite the unshakable attraction between them, Maeve and Lucian are uninterested in love and marriage; especially since they hate one another and couldn't think of a worse match. • • • London, 1815 Maeve Langston's aversion to the opposite sex has given her the reputation of being an insufferable wench, so men have learned to stay away from her. Lucian Thorne, Baron Worthington, has become somewhat of a cynical hermit since his return from the Napoleonic wars, injured and disgruntled. When the two meet, they rapidly learn to despise each other. She appears to be a narcissistic brat, and he keeps acting like a pompous arse. Lucian wants nothing more than to stay away from Maeve, but his best friend has his eyes set on her for marriage. He has no choice but to show him the dreadful harpy that lies beneath the lovely facade. However, the more time they spend in each other's presence, the clearer it becomes that first impressions can be wrong. Between their unexpected similarities and the sparks that fly every time they meet, what started as hatred slowly shifts into something different. Something both of them will find much more dangerous. • • • This is the second installment of the Langston Series. Although I advise you to read the first one first (The Prince and the Spitfire), it can be read as a standalone.

Will she finally be able to seize the happiness she truly deserves?

The year is 2024, and Heather Tremblay, an American English teacher from Pennsylvania, is simply floating through life a year after her husband passed away from a freak accident at work. Deciding she needs a mental, physical, and spiritual rest, she seeks the solace of the pine forests of Maine. However, while there, wind, a car, and a tree work together to send her back in time and to a whole other country: England, 1918. There, she will encounter some of the most challenging trials in her life: a gangster family in need of someone to simply listen to them, questions about what is truly right and truly wrong, and the act of moving on from what she once knew. Through research, experiences from her past, and a family that does not seem to leave well enough alone, she may just be able to tackle all of that over time and with a little bit of whiskey.

When, at the age of one-and-thirty, she sees her younger cousin get married, she decides to turn the fiction of her stories into reality. However, her plans are soon thwarted by a series of telegrams from England - in order to keep half of her vast fortune, Sabrina must marry the current Duke of Grantchester as a direct result of an old agreement between their late fathers, Mr Hartley and Lord Clarke. Despite her best friend's warnings, Sabrina somewhat naively sets off to see if she can be happy in England... ...only to discover to her dismay that Henry is a cold and starchy man, his family reject her out of hand, and even the weather is dreadful almost every day! Will she find a way to her husband's heart or will she fulfill her darkest and most forbidden fantasies in the secret embrace of someone else?
