Book Description
The Bride Wore Blue Felicity Harrison reluctantly agrees to help Thomas Moreland, a rich nabob, and his sister integrate into Bath Society in exchange for his clearing of her family's debts. Little does she suspect Thomas is the young man whose life she saved years earlier, the young man who's carried the torch for her for more than six years. With His Ring When Glee Pembroke learns her brother's friend Gregory Blankenship, whom she's always loved, will lose his fortune if he's not wed on his twenty-fifth birthday, she proposes a marriage in name only. Gregory never wanted a wife, but now that he's got one, his whole life is turned upside down by the vexing, maddening, adorable creature. The Bride's Secret Now that's he's a wealthy lord, James Rutledge wants to make amends to Carlotta Ennis and her son for his act which cost her husband's life. Destitute, she accepts his proposal. Now she must conceal her sordid past from the good man she's married. To Take This Lord Sally Spencer's love of Viscount George Sedgewick's motherless children and fear that their father might marry an unfeeling stepmother prompt her to accept George's proposal of a marriage in name only—even though it will be unbearable living under the roof of the man she loves and knowing she can never have him. Love in the Library Desperate widow Catherine Bexley persuades scholar Melvin Steffington to help her recover her late husband's nearly priceless stolen manuscript, the sale of which will give them both financial independence. Mysterious forces contrive to keep them from success while their mutual quest bring them closer than either have ever been to another. A Christmas in Bath Unbeknownst to scholarly Jonathan Blankenship, his sister-in-law Glee has decided this Christmas he needs a little push to make him see that his dear friend of four years, Miss Arbuckle, will make his perfect mate.

Cheryl Bolen zieht uns mit mit ihrer aufregenden Geschichte in ihren Bann. 4 Sterne - RT Book Reviews Cheryl Bolen kehrt zurück in das England der Regentenperiode, welches ihr so vertraut ist. Wenn Sie gerne aufregende romantische Geschichten dieser Epoche lesen, holen Sie sich unbedingt "Die Braut in Blau." - Happily Ever After * * * Thomas Moreland träumteseit sechs Jahren von der schönen jungen Adligen, die sein Leben gerettet hat. Während er in Indien ein Vermögen anhäufte, verging kein Tag, an dem er sich nicht an Felicitys zarte Lieblichkeit und den samtenen Klang ihrer süßen Stimme erinnerte und sich nicht danach sehnte sie zu besitzen. Felicity Harrison, die nun verwitwet ist, erkennt in dem gutaussehenden Nabob nicht den jungen Mann, der Jahre zuvor fast von Wegelagerern getötet und auf der Straße zurückgelassen wurde. Obwohl sie nichts anderes wünscht, als den arroganten Mann zu brüskieren, der ihr verspricht, ihre Familie vor finanziellem Ruin zu bewahren und im Gegenzug dafür seine Schwester der Gesellschaft präsentieren zu dürfen, kann sie ihn nicht abweisen. Sie muss sich dazu zwingen, seine Gesellschaft zu ertragen. Je mehr Zeit sie mit ihm verbringt, desto mehr muss sie sich nötigen, ihrem verstorbenen Ehemann und dessen Andenken treu zu bleiben. Wie ist es möglich, dass der aus einfachen Verhältnissen kommende Thomas Moreland mehr Noblesse besitzt, als jeder andere Mann ihrer Gesellschaftsschicht? Und warum wird es für sie immer schwieriger, um ihren toten Mann zu trauern, wenn Thomas' Männlichkeit ihre tiefsten Sehnsüchte erweckt?

Book Description
The Beauty and the Scholar. . . The Brides of Bath are Back! Book 5 in The Brides of Bath series. Certain the "smart" Steffington twin is the person who can help her recover her late husband's nearly priceless stolen Chaucer manuscript, Catherine Bexley tearfully persuades the scholar to assist her. A deal is struck. She's particularly pleased that the Doctor of Letters is not interested in seducing her because she's finished with men (owing to her late husband's multitude of unfortunate alliances with. . .doxies). Regaining the manuscript and its subsequent sale will give her independence to ensure she never has to marry again. Once he learns the poor, delicate widow is in danger of losing her heavily mortgaged home if they cannot find the valuable hologram, Dr. Melvin Steffington vows to do everything in his power to restore the rare Canterbury Tales to her. It's obvious the pretty little thing needs a man to help her. Not normally the twin to take note of pretty little things, Melvin can't help but to observe that Mrs. Bexley's physical appearance is much like the beauties so admired by his twin brother. He hadn’t counted on the fact he would have to pose as her husband as they race against the banker's ticking clock. He hadn’t counted on the mysterious thief attempting to kill him. Most of all, he hadn't counted on how close he would become to the lovely widow or how the kissing of said widow would become the most pleasant experience in his entire seven and twenty years. . .

Book Description
The Sinclair Sisters of Cripple Creek—Book 3 Headed toward a fresh start but tethered by her past, Vivian longs to break free, to find forgiveness and love. At last, the sisters are reunited! The youngest Sinclair, the family “baby”, is moving from Maine to Cripple Creek, Colorado and joining Kat, Nell, and Ida. But Vivian is a young woman with a will of her own, and she made some decisions back in Portland that have begun to haunt her. Will she be able to live up to the expectations of her three perfect and now happily settled sisters? The sisters warmly welcome Vivian to the mountain west, but the wild-and-woolly mining town isn’t ripe with opportunities for a respectable young woman. The youngest Sinclair sister is determined to make her own way, so when she’s offered a job as a hostess in a sporting house, she takes it, thinking the position is appropriate for a tainted, unlovable woman like herself. Although she’s convinced she’ll never be asked to entertain privately, Vivian keeps her employment a secret from her sisters, knowing they’d be mortified—as will Carter Alwyn, the kind and godly sheriff ’s deputy who’s sweet on her. Vivian is descending into a life of secrets, lying to the very people who love her and could help her heal from her mistakes. Will an outpouring of grace remind her that she is still God’s beloved and that her past can be washed as clean as Rocky Mountain snow?
