London, 1815

It's Lady Charlotte Lamb's last season. She's already decided it and by God she'll do anything to make it so. After 23 years she's decided that this is the season that she'll meet someone - ANYONE - and marry them. Better that than spend the rest of her life a miserable dependent on her family.

Captain Alec Winters has returned to London after 19 years in the Navy. Alone and carrying the burden of the unspeakable disaster he has lived through, his return to London is less a homecoming and more a time to heal. He wants nothing more than to be left alone as he tries to find the surviving members of his family.

But after a chance encounter in the forest leaves them both reeling, they'll have to learn to keep their passions in check - or risk eating each other alive.All Rights Reserved

"There are two sides to every coin, the head and the tail. You, sir, are certainly the latter." Madelyn Basset, the Duke of Hastings's little sister, has arrived in London Town in time for her big societal debut. As every other young lady, she hopes to catch the attention of a noble lord not even her dear brother would dare chase off. But when the dish is served, she may have bitten off more than she can chew. An oblivious Viscount. A noble Prince and a prancing Rake. These three men will have an incredible impact in Madelyn's life, in no way she could've imagined, and just when it seems like things are looking up, life deals her a card that sends everything spiralling into chaos. #OCXOC #FANFICTION #BRIDGERTONANDNETFLIX #BRIDGERTON (P.s.

Discovering the Devil by yahsss

FOR FANS OF BRIDGERTON All Penelope wants to do is become a spinster in peace. The problem is, no one will let her. Eligible bachelors from all over descend on her mother's castle to win her hand, and Penelope is forced to bat her eyes and pretend they've been rejected because they haven't succeeded in getting her to fall in love. In reality, after ten proposals and a tizzy of admirers, Penelope doesn't believe she's capable of it. When her mother catches wind of Penelope's plans to stay unmarried, she forces her into an ultimatum: marry the duke who has just proposed or be cut off. Harry is known by dozens of names, the Devil and Satan being the kindest among them. Falsely accused of slaying his half-brother and disowned by his father, Harry is forced to live as an outcast shrouded in the blackest of rumors. When his housekeeper dies, despite all his attempts to appeal to the peasantry, not a single applicant turns up. Harry is forced to resort to an unlikely, half-baked scheme with a girl he can't stand. She will be his housekeeper in order to scare her mother out of an ultimatum and he will use the presence of a lady to attract a real replacement. It will be a simple, loveless transaction...as long as they're able to resist each other... *Hades and Persephone retelling* *completed* ----- #86 in historicalromance 8/5/23

Husband Wanted (HC #1) by Flo_Writes

Elizbeth Anne Humphrey wants a husband. Her expectations are not outlandish; all she asks is that he be reasonably handsome, reasonably wealthy and completely kind. Her brothers have offered their assistance, and it's given her hope that perhaps there is a man out there who might want her for a wife. But alas, the first man she meets after recommitting to the battle against spinsterhood is reasonably handsome, reasonably naked and completely soaked through and stranded on their front steps. He also has a head-wound and no memory of who he is, but Elizabeth Humphrey has larger mysteries to solve; namely, the mystery of who she might marry.

The Case of the Season by robinwritesatt

[2022 Wattys Shortlist Finalist] In this mash-up of Bridgerton and Enola Holmes set during the Regency, Robin Ballard is sent to London to spend the season with her cousins, the Bridgertons, in the hopes that she will finally find a husband before it is too late, though she doesn't much care for the idea of matrimony. Similarly, the famous and very eligible detective Sherlock Holmes isn't interested in finding a wife, but has been hired to locate a missing heiress, which requires him to circulate amongst the ton, and he's having trouble because he lacks social graces. When he and Robin cross paths at a ball, they come to an arrangement that greatly benefits them both. She'll help him with the ton and he'll marry her, after which they can comfortably live their lives apart. But as they spend more time together, they find that close proximity has turned their ruse into reality.

A Gamble // Benedict Bridgerton by Katiethestag

Being the youngest daughter of the King and Queen of England had challenges, but Evelyn believed that she had faced them with bravery and valour only parallel to the Knights of Camelot. Intrigued by myth and history, Evelyn shies away from the ton, indulging in conversations unladylike and often improper. Wayfair would never speak ill of their Royal Highness. Five years a spinster, the Queen Charlotte pushes her daughter towards society and into this Season of Love. A woman with many secrets, Evelyn assures herself that she will not allow any suitor to marry her, despite what her mother may want, but when she carelessly strikes a deal with the second born Bridgerton, and becomes enraptured by his family, that assurance becomes hesitant. Her Royal Highness Princess Evelyn has never wanted love, not when it is often regretted, but love cares little for her want, and even less for her secrets. Benedict Bridgerton x OC [Season 2 - ]

To Bewitch A Beast by greenwriter

"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.
