Eventually Yours by ANHorton1227

A younger sister cannot wed before an older sister. It's a law of their society, a rule vehemently obeyed by prominent families in the nobility, and it's always been Ella Harrington's buffer. Ella has never been interested in marrying for anything short of love itself. Unfortunately for her, love is a rarity in the marriages of the aristocracy. Fortunately for her, her sister Emily is precisely one year older than her and is the most unpleasant, disagreeable, sulking woman to ever debut in all of England. So Ella may never have to marry at all. A free woman, she enjoys her time on the sidelines and wishes for nothing more. That is, until a tall, dark, and brooding Duke comes to town alongside an old friend of her brother's. Suddenly, Ella finds herself questioning the antiquated marriage order rule as her buffer begins to feel more like a barrier. Not that it matters. The Duke isn't interested in her anyway. Right?

The Princess and I by KathrynStirling1992

Elizabeth has studied for many years now and is finally ready for her first courting season. She has it all figured out: she wants to marry a wealthy man who will love her and give her many children. She's got her eye on her brother's best friend, Duke Liam Arlington, the eternal bachelor. And it soon turns out that Elizabeth has caught his attention as well. Their marriage will follow soon... or won't it? We all know about the Victorian Era. The many balls and social events. Splendid dresses. London's famous courting season. This love story is a different kind of love story, though not less real. It's about a love that was and perhaps still isn't as accepted as it should be, but therefore not less powerful or wonderful. This story is about one of the most important battles in one's life: the battle to love whoever one wants.
