A Fake Courtship that becomes all-too-real... The Marquess of Greystone is responsible for carrying on his family's name and he's determined to fulfill his duty. He will marry a proper lady, of a proper lineage, and produce an heir. He's even gone so far as to obtain permission to court Lady Isabella, the debutante he's decided would make an excellent marchioness. But first, as a favor to his friend the Baron of Chaswick, he's promised to assist in easing the man's illegitimate sister's entrance into society. A trip around a lake in a rowboat and a drive through Hyde Park ought to be enough to help the chit feel welcome. Miss Diana Jones believed her brother's title would pave the way for her entrance into society but gaining the acceptance of the ton is not so simple as that. When her brother's friend rows her around the lake and another gentleman takes notice, she cannot help but believe if the Marquess were to appear to be actually courting her, she'd have no trouble at all attracting a suitable husband. Despite Lord Greystone's advanced age of nine and twenty, he is lofty, proper, and a little stuffy. He's the perfect man to pretend that she's captured his heart! And of course, he will help her, he's one of her brother's best friends. What begins as a game of pretend turns both of their plans upside down when their feigned affection blossoms into genuine feelings neither bargained for. Lust. Joy. Love? Will the marquess and Diana overcome their differences or will those differences keep them from knowing the love of a lifetime?

Lord Giles Longe, Marques Gordan, never wanted to hurt Sarah. But he couldn’t have married her back then. His father wouldn’t have allowed it. Everything is different now, though. He will make amends. And if it’s the last thing he ever does, he will make her remember the friendship—and pleasure—they once shared.

A soldier who despises women and a woman who despises soldiers must depend on each other to survive. Scarred in a duel over a feckless female, Gavin Lawrence leaves America to take up his new duty as Marquess of Effingham, vowing never to care about others again. But he does care about protecting his crumbling new home—the secret passages apparently conceal an intruder he’s determined to root out. Dillian Whitnell guards her injured cousin in isolated Arinmede manor after an attempt on both their lives. Having followed her father’s troops for years, Dillian is adept at camouflage. She just hadn’t expected the stubborn new marquess to refuse to believe in ghosts. Her game of hide-and-seek game taunts his irritation into intrigue, and intrigue into a forbidden passion, until Gavin realizes the exceedingly annoying but courageous young woman he chases is in terrible danger. Once more, the marquess is faced with the prospect of a fight for his life over a woman—unless Dillian leaves him and all she loves behind.

With her mastery of subtle humor, The Marquess will please the taste of the most discriminating readers.” Joan Hammond, Romantic Times
