True Colours

Jane Verey was not going to marry Lord Philip Delahaye! He was rude, insulting and a drunkard! And at the thought of spending a lifetime with him, Jane would even lower herself to deception in order to dissuade her boorish suitor. But Philip's handsome brother would not be so easily fooled....

Jane Verey most certainly was going to marry his brother. Alex, the Duke of Delahaye, had carefully arranged the match, and Miss Verey's tricks would not stop the marriage. But every time Alex set eyes on the enchanting hoyden, he found himself wanting a match of his own....

Widowed Mrs. Annabella St. Auby's situation was uncomfortable, but meeting Sir William Weston was wonderful! He made his interest very clear, and she was hugely drawn to him.

But when her father's tangled affairs were finally sorted out, she found that her sole inheritance, Larkswood, was of prime importance to Sir William. And Annabella began to wonder--was Sir William pursuing her for herself or for her legacy?

Lord Robert Selborne intended to kiss the chimney sweep's daughter for luck at his cousin's wedding...not marry her! But of all the ladies assembled, she was the only one who captured his interest. And unless she became his wife in name only, he would forfeit his inheritance....

Having been raised by a brutal father on the London streets, Jemima Jewell had few illusions about life and love. Until Rob's lips met hers in a soul-stirring kiss and he impulsively made her his wife. And his penniless bride now hoped her love would provide Rob with a fortune far greater than the one he sought....

Lady Allerton was prone to recklessness. But attending a ball dressed as a Cyrian and posing a wager on her virtue had pushed her behavior way beyond the pale!

Unmarriageable, untamable, unforgettable, Lady Juliana Myfleet was the Ton's most notorious widow. With her reputation nearly in tatters, Juliana knew the one thing that would save her from ruin was the one thing she did not want--marriage!

Martin Davencourt knew there was more to Juliana than gossip and scandal. But he was walking a fine line in saving his childhood friend from herself. If Juliana was not the sweet innocent he remembered, his liaison with a lady of dubious repute would cost him everything he held most dear. Still, Martin had paid the price for letting Juliana go once--and he'd willingly risk all before letting that happen again....

Lord Mostyn was in no position to marry. Though his desire for innocent Eleanor Trevithick was impossible to deny!

Even as Lady Polly rejected another proposal of marriage, her heart burned for the man she'd rejected five years ago. She'd heard that in his misery, her beloved Lord Henry Marchnight had become a rogue and a gambler. But when he appeared before her on a deserted terrace and stole a kiss, Polly knew that her passion hadn't died. The man still knew how to steal her reason with one touch. But reason she needed as suspicions of criminal behavior hovered about Lord Henry. Should she return to her routine of spurning suitors? Or should she do what she should have done five years ago--trust her love and follow her heart...?

After the excitement of war, Nicholas found life as a civilian stifling. His boredom soon lifted when the notorious courtesan Susanna Kellaway claimed a lease on one of his houses. No sooner did they meet than Nicholas became truly puzzled. Though Nicholas had every cause to dislike her, this "Susanna" was an odd mix of seductive manners, intelligence and...innocence! So much so that he was beginning to wonder if the woman wasn't an impostor! Which didn't stop him from asking her to be his mistress. But the lovely lady had a more permanent idea in mind for the dashing earl....

Always The Chaperon And Never The Bride...

At least, that's the way it was for Lady Annis Wyncherley. If this young widow was to remain as chaperon to society's misses, there could be no hint of scandal attached to her name. Rakes and romance were strictly off-limits, most especially a rogue like the handsome Lord Adam Ashwick!

But that proved nearly impossible when Adam made his daughter's chaperon the subject of his relentless seduction. Adam knew any attention from him could destroy Lady Wyncherley's fine reputation. But he was powerless to control the strong desires she aroused in him. And all too soon this reformed rogue was hell-bent on convincing a very stubborn Annis to become his chaperon bride....
