A Rogue in
Sheep’s Clothing
By Elf Ahearn
In Lord Hugh Davenport’s opinion, women of the ton perpetually hide behind a mask of
deception. That’s hard for Lady Ellie Albright to swallow – especially since
she’s disguised herself as a stable hand to get back the prized stallion her
father sold Hugh to pay a debt. If Hugh learns her true identity she’ll lose
the horse and her family will go bankrupt. Somehow, though, giving up Hugh’s
love is starting to seem worse.
The flock of insipid debutantes Hugh's mother
invites to a house party, bore him. Instead, he's captivated by an enigmatic
stable hand who swears she’ll never marry. The harder he presses her, the more
she urges him to wed Ellie Albright, the silliest goose in the whole
unappealing lot. What Hugh desires is a strong, independent woman who can hold
her own and who cares about something other than the latest hat styles. And
that’s just the type of woman he's never going to find in his mother’s parlor…
The
Secret Life of Lords
By Elf Ahearn
If Lady Claire Albright had one wish, it would be to forget
brooding, powerful Lord Flavian Monroe. But even after two years of bewildering
silence, she yearns to touch his sinuous arms and feel his calloused hands upon
her cheeks. Then, on the brink of her come out, they accidently meet. His ward
is ill, and he begs her to use her knowledge of healing to help the girl. But
this patient is sick in a way that’s far different from what Claire
expected—dangerously different. And, as she struggles to find a cure, Flavian
resists rekindling their love. Is it the ward’s illness that keeps him cold and
distant, or a dark and terrible secret?
The thought of Claire in the arms of another man is
unbearable, but in his heart Flavian knows he mustn’t ask her to share the
consequences of his mistake. Nor should he have brought her to his home and
exposed her to his ward’s sickness. Yet he lacks the strength to send her away.
Each time he looks into Claire’s eyes, the urge to feel her body pressed
against his consumes all reason, and he is left unable to utter the word,
‘Goodbye.’
A Duke
in the Rough
By Elf Ahearn
Lord Crewe Burnett has turned his back on everything having
to do with his cruel twin, the Duke of Hanesford. Uneducated, and reminded
daily of his shortcomings, Crewe steeps himself in boxing and whiskey. But at
his brother’s nuptials, he finds he can’t tolerate the sight of another woman
nearing her destruction, especially a flaxen-haired, spirited beauty like Lady
Peggity Albright. He hauls her off the altar, throws her over his shoulder and
then tries to convince her to flee.
As for Peggity, when that wastrel Crewe attempts to stop her
marriage, she comes to the conclusion that the duke’s only drawback is his
dangerously muscular brother. However, she quickly learns the true nature of
her husband and exactly what he wants from her. Trapped in a horrific marriage,
she depends on Crewe for safety, for company, and then for love. But in the
eyes of society, leaving her husband is impossible, and marrying his brother is
unthinkable. Scandal or love? The choice is hers…
