Taming a Duke's Reckless Heart
Piper Baker’s mother is gravely ill and they are about to be destitute. With both time and money running out, marriage is her only option. While suitors swirl around her, none capture her heart until Barrett Maddox, Duke of Manchester, saves her from a band of thieves. But the one man she wants is the only one she cannot have.
Barrett Maddox has few rules for his life, but one of them is to stay far away from marriageable virgins. That is until he rescue’s Piper with her auburn hair and spunky fortitude. For some unknown and insane reason, he agrees to her mother’s request to help broker her on the marriage market of New York. Moreover, while he will easily ward off any unwanted suitors, he cannot imagine how he will keep his hands to himself?
As their lives become more tangled, the question becomes… Is there anything more reckless than love?
Taming
a Duke's Wild Rose
Since the death of her
mother, Lady Rose Wentworth has dreamed of a hero. A knight or soldier who
sweeps her off her feet and heals the scars she hides within. These fantasies
cloud her judgement when it comes to a man’s true
nature and every suitor she pines for proves to be less than honorable. But
Rose is convinced she has finally found a true hero in the soldier, Carl
Lundberg.
Fearing for Rose’s future, her father arranges a match with the scarred duke.
Powerful and rich beyond reason, Lord Wentworth is convinced this is the man
who can provide a real future for his daughter. But Rose knows better, or so
she thinks. Now she is caught between two men, one handsome and dashing, the
other scarred but intriguing none-the-less. As each vies for her hand, Rose
finds it more difficult to discern whose intentions are pure.
The more Rose is
entangled in the web of love and marriage the more she questions which man has
the true heart and who can unlock hers.
Taming a Laird's Wild
Lady
Miss Isabelle Maddox,
known as Isla, has never been one to follow rules. She would much rather a
reckless ride on horseback than a dance in a ballroom but her father has very
different ideas about her future. To further the families’
fortune, he would see her married to a Scottish lord. Isla fears this will be
the end of the life she treasures above all else.
Gavin Campbell will
never marry again. His past has taught him well, his first wife’s spending has him teetering on the edge of financial ruin.
Marriage is a disease, or so he thought until the headstrong Isla starts
seeping into is heart and he begins to wonder if a woman like her might
actually be a cure. Can Isla’s wild ways tame this
laird’s heart?
Who was your favorite
Character: Too many to count
How did you feel after
reading it: I am really enjoying this book. I think that I’ve been missing just
a normal romance, not one that’s paranormal. Where the guy’s can’t keep it in
their pants and the girls are just as eager. There is a bit of mystery in each
of the novels that makes it great.
