Have you ever wanted someone who doesn't want you? Miss Josephine Yorke hasn't, at least not yet. The beautiful Miss Yorke has been promised to a stranger for as long as she can remember, but Miss Josephine has no intention of following her controlling father's wishes. Fortunately for Josephine, her would-be-betrothed feels just as she. After a tumultuous first encounter, the ill-tempered Mr. Charles Tennyson entangles Josephine in a scheme. Who better to find a replacement husband, than Charles himself? But Josephine soon realizes, our lists of wants are often not what we need. 
**********************************

"How will I continue to suffer your company?" Josephine moaned. "I fear you might drive me to bloodshed!"

"And I fear you might drive me to madness! But I hope to find you a husband before it comes to that." He studied her a moment, his eyes drifting about her figure, the scrutiny making her feel awkward. "Preferably a husband with keen eyesight, yet deficient in hearing."

Josephine's mouth dropped at his inappropriate compliment, followed by an inappropriate insult.

          *I am going to be a murderess...at least, then, marriage will be the least of my problems.*

I looked at his eyes and put up a strong face. His eyes bore into mine as much as mine into his. It was like he could read my mind and reach out to my soul just by looking into my eyes. I tried to read his thoughts, too, but it felt like he had blocked me out this time. Nothing seemed clear to me anymore. Tears were burning behind my eyes and threatening to pour out. I forced myself to hold them back and asked him, "Just revenge?" Without a ting of emotion on his face, he said, "Just Revenge." ********************************************* Amelia Lawson had a perfect life. In the eyes of the world, Amelia, or Amy as most would call her, had everything you ever wanted. A successful career, rich background, a loving brother, and a handsome boyfriend turned husband.

Now, blackmailed by her husband, Amelia has no choice but to pretend in front of his family and the world that they are a happy couple until he gets what he wants, even if it is her life that is at stake. With Amy's heart already in her husband's hands, her husband hell bent on making her life a living hell and her not knowing what has she possibly done in the twenty five years of her existence to make him hate her so much, what is much left for her to do but comply? But no, "Take no shit from anyone." is a rule made for Amy. Aaron Kingston may have been the love of her life, but he is no exception to this rule. ******************************************** Warning: Mentions of sensitive stuff.

14 Partes Concluida
(COMPLETED) It's 1817 and there is nothing more a woman wants than to marry a rich man and live a life of comfort. But not Nancy Brooks. Having spent half her life helping her mother run her laundry shop and the other half in the local library, Nancy knows what she wants, and it is not a life spent looking for the perfect suitor. Things take a turn when she delivers clothes to one of the schools she always dreamed of attending and ends up saving the day. Lord Andrew Montgomery rules almost every place he sets foot in-one of the perks of being the son of the most powerful duke of the time-and this includes Oxford. Violent and aggressive, he vows to make the life of every student who dares defy him miserable. However, when he targets the new (and first) girl at Oxford, his obsession becomes a little more than just making her life miserable. It began, he would later speculate, with a shout: the simple sound of someone shouting at him-for the first time in his life. It began, she would later speculate, with a catch: the simple movement of strong arms, breaking her fall, catching her midway. But after that, there would come many more events, and ones not too keen on bringing them together. What will they do when a powerful duchess steps in, when it seems every person is working to keep them apart? This is a story of betrayal and love, because they are not so different after all...
A Marriage Most Inconvenient de zeen2805
60 Partes Concluida Contenido adulto
Forced into marriage by duty and obligation, The Duke and Duchess of Rothbury parted ways a week after saying their vows under the explicit understanding that theirs was a marriage in name only. There would be no expectations of love, fidelity, or romance. The Duke hates the American Heiress who married him only for his title, completely unaffected by the senseless tragedy that had made their marriage necessary in the first place. When an illness forces him to retire to the country, he makes sure to choose the property where his wife wouldn't be. Except that she is, and she is still as insufferable as ever. The Duchess resents the man who killed her youthful dreams of love and abandoned her to live his bachelor life unencumbered. When she is jilted by her lover, and faced with inevitable ridicule, she decides to retire to her beloved estate in Cornwall, where she runs an orphanage. Never once does she expect to run into her cold, selfish, insufferable arse of a husband! Forced into each other's company by circumstance, the couple begin to unravel their individual prejudices. Resentment turns into respect and friendship. Respect and friendship soon turn into attraction and affection. Was love closer than either one of them could ever have imagined? And that begged the question; can the Duke win his wife's favor, or is it far too late to make their marriage a love match? Cover by MuniWilliams.
