Three great Regency Historical Romance stories in one volume! ***FREE ON KINDLE UNLIMITED***
These hot Regency romances will keep you turning the page! These are the 4th, 5th and 6th stories in the Derbyshire set series.
The Count’s Impetuous Seduction
A dashing Count, a beautiful maiden, a handsome Marquess, a mysterious woman, a love that defies all challenges. Lady Charlotte Cavendish had eagerly awaited her sister’s wedding - for her own reasons.... Don Diego Sanchez-Zapata, Count of San Pedro, who Charlotte had been desperately longing for, from the moment that she first met him, was unfortunately late arriving at the wedding. A fact that Charlotte could only see as abandonment, especially as, when he eventually did arrive, it was with an unexplained, beautiful Spanish lady in his retinue. The handsome and very eligible Marquess Hemsbridge, however, was very much present at the wedding festivities, and more than willing to distract the delectable Lady Charlotte from her disappointment. Which left Lady Charlotte in the enviable (or perhaps, unenviable ?) position of having to choose between two very different men, both of whom caused her heart to beat faster just by looking at her. Resulting in improper behavior and moments of desperate despair, as well as ecstatic love. Can Charlotte achieve a happy ending? or will she make the wrong choice...
The Rake’s Unlikely Redemption
A Rake, a Lady, old heartbreak and despair, an unexpected meeting, a second chance for love. Mr James Blackwood, although heir to a Viscount, after years cultivating his reputation as a rake, gambler, and exotic world traveler, finds himself less and less happy with his life - not that he could admit that to anyone... Lady Honour Northbrook, Baroness Fotherington, now widowed, and disappointed with her life, is convincing herself that she is content... A chance meeting brings them together, and eleven years of heartbreak and bitterness are not enough to dim their passionate reactions to each other. Can they ever trust each other, and love again?
The Marquess’ Scandalous Mistress
A scandalous woman, a handsome Marquess, a passionate affair, a scoundrel, a legal complication, a final chance for love. Lady Amelia Duckington is the scandal of the ton - a married woman, blatantly carrying on multiple affairs, and with a very sharp edged tongue. Inside, she despairs - surrounded by shallow dandies, her life has become an endless toil of boredom - yet she knows no other way to go on. Sterling Asterwood, Marquess Hemsbridge, is equally bored - faced with the need to marry, and get an heir, he yet finds the parade of eligible young women insipid and unbearable. The only woman who is at all interesting has one, unfortunate, characteristic - she is already married! Can Sterling and Amelia find happiness, and still be true to their duty? Or will a scoundrel take everything they both care about?
