Publisher's Synopsis
Scandal At Vauxhall: The love and happiness Isabel Salisbury expected in life when she accepted the proposal of the Marquess of Stoughton takes an unexpected turn, when he leaves on a mission for the war office. She is married off to the Duke of Brimley. Nathaniel Thompson, the Marquess of Stoughton, is devastated to learn upon his return that Isabel has married the duke. When news of her husband's death surfaces, Nathaniel sets out to make amends and will stop at nothing until she's his marchioness. But when London learns of a promiscuous tryst between them in the Daily, their credibility is at stake. They soon discover that nothing in life is simple, nor private, and all is fair in love and war. A Sinful Education: Lord Charles Avonlea has evaded marriage over the last year, but his mother is determined to find him a wife. Far from consenting to any of her choices, he sets his sights on the one woman unavailable to him, his best friend's younger sister. With no regard for the law or her impending nuptials, he is determined to make Lady Emily Thompson his bride. The only trouble is, he's stumbled upon dangerous information and hopes he can get to her before it's too late. Stunned and dismayed at discovering the arrangement between her mother and the Duke of Downsbury, Lady Emily Thompson searches for a way to break the marriage pact with the duke. She longs to be with the only man who indulges her curiosity, yet finds herself in the middle of a scandal that will crush her dreams forever. Will she find a way to get out of marrying the duke, or will she find herself in the same predicament as the previous duchess? Her Deviant Lord: Bastian Wycliffe, the Earl of Wendelhem, has finally moved on...or so he thought. Enroute to a hunting trip after over-indulging the night before, he endures a frightful and terribly embarrassing swoon. He's seen a ghost and her name is Cordelia Waite, the Duchess of Downsbury. Mrs. Weylen, formerly a duchess, has a secret. All it took was the chance meeting in the inn that fateful night for her memories to come back and haunt her. She makes haste returning to London incognito with the intent to clear up misconceptions and to deliver an ultimatum to her former lover. Yet, when a new found obsession refuses to accept the truth, and her imprisoned husband discovers she's still alive, their lives and relationship may be in danger. Second chances have never been more precarious.
