She’ll never fall in love with a man—or trust one—ever again. Especially not a quiet, brooding, proper lord who is too handsome for his own good. Neville Astley, Viscount Wilton, is a recluse by choice who has mostly avoided society until becoming the guardian of his niece. For her sake, he’s attending a Yorkshire country house party, despite preferring to be anywhere else. He wants nothing to do with romance or a wild hellion like Lady Charity. And yet, there’s something about her that he finds impossible to resist. Unexpected desire flares between the gentleman most likely to follow the rules and the lady most likely to break them. But while Charity will surrender her body willingly, she’ll never cede her heart. When Neville realizes he wants far more from her than a midnight tryst, he’ll do everything he can to persuade her that the only place she belongs is in his arms—forever. Heat level: Scorching! Don't say you weren't warned.

Forever Her Viscount

A case of mistaken identity between a proper earl and a feisty American heiress turns scorching in this opposites attract romance from USA Today Bestselling author Scarlett Scott. Bold and fiercely opinionated American heiress Lucy Chartrand has proudly left a string of scandals in her wake on both sides of the Atlantic. Her matchmaking mother may long to secure her an aristocratic English husband, but Lucy is tired of being sought after for her family’s fortune. She longs for a life of independence and freedom, far from the glittering world of London ballrooms, and she’s finally put a plan in motion to make that happen. Gareth Claremont, Earl of Rexingham, has only accompanied his wayward younger sister to a Yorkshire country house party to keep her out of trouble. As always, mayhem finds her. This time, in the form of a new friend, the gorgeous, thoroughly improper, utterly appalling hellion Miss Lucy Chartrand. Gareth intends to do everything he can to keep the ruinous influence of a wild hoyden like Miss Chartrand far from his impressionable sister. But Lucy’s brilliant scheme goes hopelessly awry, and now there’s one tall, handsome prig standing between her and what she wants most. They’ll never suit regardless of what happened by mistake in the moonlight. Or will they? Heat level: Scorching! Don't say you weren't warned.

Forever Her Earl

Lady Clementine Hammond may be polite society’s most notorious matchmaker, but she’s perfectly happy remaining unattached herself. A series of unfortunate missteps at a country house party, however, leaves her with no choice but to feign an engagement to the last man in all England she’d ever want to marry—the annoyingly handsome Marquess of Dorset. Dorset needs a wife with a sizable dowry to save his estate, but thanks to Lady Clementine’s machinations, the woman he intended to wed became someone else’s wife. Much to his dismay, when fate inconveniently throws Lady Clementine into his arms, he’s forced to claim she’s his future bride. The bitter enemies strike a reluctant understanding. One fortnight of false smiles and pretending to be head over heels for each other, followed by a return to London and the quiet ending of their betrothal. It should be quite simple. Except, the more time Clementine and Dorset spend together, the more real their engagement feels. And when their mutual enmity heats into a surprising passion, Clementine is shocked to realize she wants far more from Dorset than two weeks. She wants his forever. Publisher's Note: This is an all-new, rewritten happily ever after for Clementine and Dorset.

Forever Her Marquess

Lucien, Duke of Arden, is on the brink of disaster, about to lose everything he worked so hard to attain as the leader of the Special League. When Home Office obliges him to join forces with a Pinkerton agent to keep his position, he is determined to send the fellow back to American shores faster than he can say “Yankee Doodle.” There’s just one small problem with his flawless plan to undermine the unwanted agent… Hazel Montgomery has spent the last ten years as a Pinkerton detective, fighting to be treated as an equal to her male counterparts, and the list of her successful cases is as long as the Mississippi River. She is not about to allow a supercilious duke to condescend to her. If Arden does not want her assistance, he can take his arrogance and go back to his fancy drawing room where he belongs. Their clash is as instant as it is inevitable. When a fresh wave of bombings hits London and the danger intensifies, Lucien and Hazel must work together to bring a new ring of Fenians to justice. The more time they spend in each other’s company, the more the underlying attraction between them sizzles until it bursts into uncontrollable flames. Haunted by past tragedy, Lucien vowed long ago never to fall in love. Hazel’s sole rule in life is to trust no one. But soon, the cold duke and the bold American find themselves locked in a battle for the greatest prize of all—each other’s hearts.

Shameless Duke

Mut und Entschlossenheit haben Hudson Stone als Chief Inspector bei Scotland Yard durchs Leben getragen. Aber nichts hätte den unerbittlichen Ermittler darauf vorbereiten können, ein Herzogtum zu erben. Am schlimmsten ist jedoch, dass Hudson aufgrund der Schulden, die ihm zusammen mit dem Titel vererbt wurden, eine reiche Erbin heiraten muss, um seine Ländereien vor dem Ruin zu bewahren ... Lady Elysande ist bewusst, dass der letzte Herzog von Wycombe sie lediglich wegen ihrer immensen Mitgift interessant fand, und sie hat keinen Zweifel daran, dass sein grimmiger Nachfolger sie aus demselben Grund heiraten möchte. Aber Elysande hat ihre eigenen Beweggründe, das Angebot des neuen Herzogs anzunehmen. Ein Arrangement aus Vernunft scheint für beide die ideale Lösung zu sein – bis die Schatten von Hudsons Vergangenheit auftauchen und alles durcheinanderbringen …
