A man in possession of £12,000 a year and his own teeth is not to be sneered at. After five failed London Seasons, Charlotte Winford is past being picky. She has enraptured a gouty squire with a pig-farming empire. Admittedly, he is no Adonis and has a horror of educated women, but it’s not raining suitors in the ballrooms of 1813. Only duty would induce war-hardened Jasper Alverstone to attend an Almack’s ball. The most hunted matrimonial prize in England, he is not above skulking in dark corners to avoid ambitious mamas. Unfortunately, he is now head of his illustrious family and must honor his father’s will, even if it means marrying an insufferable heiress who loathes him. No sooner has that lady thrown his dance offer in his face when he overhears some sapskull making the world’s worst marriage proposal. Nearly flattened by its fleeing recipient, Jasper is stunned to recognize the country damsel he saved from ruin seven years ago. His life was never the same again. With old scores to settle and secrets to hide, Jasper and Charlotte form an uneasy alliance that sets the ton aghast. A demoralized wallflower has an obvious agenda, but what can a powerful marquess want with a Shropshire nobody? Alverstone is a sweeping Regency-set saga of two families bound by love and war. Review: Pam Baker, REGENCY CHRONICLE "...Welcome to Alverstone, a Regency ‘Downton Abbey’ that has it all: romance, intrigue, tragedy, and humor, set against the backdrop of glittering balls, sprawling estates, and the battlefields of the Napoleonic Wars. ... ...Knight writes like she time-traveled from 1813. As founder of the All Things Regency research blog, she brings a deep understanding and passion for the customs, language, and fashions of the era. What sets Alverstone apart is its authenticity, along with deft plotting, sharp wit and vivid characters.... ...Whether you’re a fan of Regency fiction, or just great storytelling, Alverstone is a must-read -- a sumptuous period piece. Witty. Touching. Deliciously Austen-like. Impossible to put down."

Four Heartfelt Winter Romance Stories from Betty Neels, all in one volume! A Christmas Romance Although Theodosia Chapman has gone through trying times and hardships, the one thing she would never lose is her positive outlook and sunny disposition. But the prospect of spending Christmas alone is a hard test on Theodosia’s attitude and, on top of that, her difficult manager at the hospital doesn’t make her job as an office clerk any easier. It isn’t until she meets physician Hugo Bentinck on Christmas Eve that she realizes the prospect of love might save her Christmas… and might even last forever. Dearest Eulalia Eulalia Langley is doing everything she can to keep her house, but with money running out, only something short of a Christmas miracle can save her home. Fortunately, handsome surgeon Aderik van der Leurs arrives with great timing and a very convenient marriage proposal. What Eulalia doesn’t know is that Aderik has been madly in love with her from the beginning. Would they have the courage to confess what they actually feel for each other, giving their marriage for convivence a chance to turn into a real one? Winter of Change When twenty-one-year-old Mary Jane Pettigrew inherits a large house and an income to go with it from her grandfather, she knows this is her chance to prove her independence. But when she learns the house comes with a guardian, Fabian van der Blocq, she is determined to show him she can look after herself and not let him get his way. Fabian is cold and uncommunicative; Mary Jane is rebellious and often difficult. Neither of them hides how much they hate each other and the situation they have been put in, but love can grow in the most challenging circumstances and surprise them both. A Matter of Chance When Cressida traded her nursing position for a job in Holland, she was looking for a new beginning, but the conflict she feels when dealing with Doctor Giles van der Tiele’s arrogant but charming personality, is exactly the type of feeling she was trying to avoid. But would either of them have the courage to let go of their judgments to make space for love?
