To Bewitch A Beast
"Deliciously captivating! It's the perfect amount of laughs, love and drama. You won't be able to put this book down!" - Grace K @ HQ. When Agatha becomes the Everard's governess, she's grateful for a way to escape her dark past. That is until her growing feelings for the mysterious Lord of the house begin to present an even greater risk. ***** The Everard's are one of the most esteemed families in Wickhurst. And Benedict, the Lord of Devonshire and the eldest of the clan, is as mysterious and brooding as anyone The Town has ever seen. His face is marked with scars, and no one dares to speak on how he got them. Known to all as 'the beast,' the townsfolk tremble in his wake. But little does he know that he is about to meet his match in Agatha Blair, his sisters' new governess. Agatha is witty, smart and gives him a run for his money when he tries to peel back the layers of who she really is. She truly intrigues him more than any woman he has met but she is a governess and he is a Lord. The Town would shun the union of two people from different stations and any romance between them is surely a recipe for social disaster! But what can they do when the burning hot feelings refuse to relent? And when Benedict uncovers that Agatha is hiding a secret far more dangerous than anything he could have imagined, will love save the day and will Agatha finally tame the beast? *This story is a standalone title in the Everard Family series.

To keep you- Miguel O'Hara/Peter B Parker
Before Peter, Miguel had believed he was not meant to keep anything or anyone he was given. From losing his beautiful and talented daughter to losing his "perfect Peter", Miguel's life had never seemed to be heading in the right direction. He was tormented day in and day out with an overdriving fear that lapped at each and every one of Miguel un-ironed creases. The mere raw and breathing anxiety that came with the idea of those around him being taken from him, scared him oh so very deeply. So, he shut himself away. EVENTUALLY Miguel and Peter B end up adopting Hobie and Pavitr :) (This BEAUTIFUL art belongs to too_far_too_good on insta)Complete
