From the series guaranteed to "win the hearts of Regency fans" comes a story of secret identities, unlikely love, and forbidden romances that will warm even the coldest of hearts (Publishers Weekly). Calvin, Earl of Carlyle, is spending the season focused on finding his younger sister a good match. And if he's noticing his land steward's uncommon cheekbones and full lower lip? Well, that's easy enough to ignore. The man is competent beyond measure. But when Cal discovers that "he" is a "she," his interest turns to romance. Ophelia Hardwick has spent the last decade living as a boy. As Adam, she doesn't have to worry about being forced into an arranged marriage by her uncle. Pretending she doesn't have a crush on Cal is a small price to pay for being able to hide in plain sight. But when he discovers her secret, he puts not just her heart--but her life--in danger. Because Phee's uncle has been looking for her for ten years, and he won't stop until he finds her.

One Unconventional American Heiress Can Be Even Wilder Than the Highlands... Outspoken American heiress Harriet Redgrave is undeniably bad ton. She laughs too much, rides too fast, and tends to start fires pursuing her interest in the new science of chemistry. And despite her grandfather's matchmaking intentions to the contrary, Harriet has no interest in being wooed for her wealth. Duncan Maclachlan, Earl of Thornton, would never marry to repair the family fortunes. Or would he? When he saves Harriet from a science experiment about to go very, very, wrong, all bets are off.

A Novel

A New York Times Bestseller and one of the best historical fiction books of 2016 and 2017! “A juicy answer to Ron Chernow's Alexander Hamilton…” --Cosmopolitan Set against the dramatic backdrop of the American Revolution, and featuring a cast of legendary characters, The Hamilton Affair tells the sweeping, tumultuous, true story of Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler, from passionate and tender beginnings of their romance to his fateful duel on the banks of the Hudson River. Hamilton was a bastard and orphan, raised in the Caribbean and desperate for legitimacy, who became one of the American Revolution's most dashing--and improbable--heroes. Admired by George Washington, scorned by Thomas Jefferson, Hamilton was a lightning rod: the most controversial leader of the new nation. Elizabeth was the wealthy, beautiful, adventurous daughter of the respectable Schuyler clan--and a pioneering advocate for women. Together, the unlikely couple braved the dangers of war, the perils of seduction, the anguish of infidelity, and the scourge of partisanship that menaced their family and the country itself. With flawless writing, brilliantly drawn characters, and epic scope, The Hamilton Affair tells a story of love forged in revolution and tested by the bitter strife of young America, and will take its place among the greatest novels of American history ever written.

New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan begins the all new The Duke Hunt series with the illegitimate son of a duke who meets his match in the daring daughter of a vicar. The Bastard Rogue... Peregrine Butler's privileged blue-blooded world is rocked to the core when it is revealed he was born before his parents' marriage and therefore is not the legal heir to the dukedom. Now as poor as the proverbial church mouse, Perry must use his charm and good looks to win an heiress and save himself from wretched penury-all the while ignoring his fascination with the interfering and alluring chit who is intent on sabotaging his efforts. The Lady Vicar... Everyone knows Imogen Bates, the virtuous daughter of the senile vicar. It is she who writes the sermons, and she everyone sees about all matters spiritual and domestic. A pillar of the community, she will protect her beloved Shropshire from all rogues, starting with the worst offender: the erstwhile Duke of Penning, the bane of her existence since childhood. She vows to protect the local heiresses from being taken in by the silver-tongued fortune hunter because it's the right thing to do ... certainly not because she finds herself wanting to keep his heated glances and tempting kisses all to herself.
